Biggest problems my police friends tell me are the prostitutes, drugs and parking at the UN when there is a meeting :)

I thought that his Excellency Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. was in line for that position, rules not withstanding.

When countries that kill or imprison citizens for APOSTASY are allowed to head the human rights council, it is a sign that the UN should be burned to the ground and replaced with a nice park in NYC.

Why do the US taxpayers have to pay around 25% of the UN expenses when there are about 190+ countries there?

If we get a Conservative (Cruz) as Prez, he should pursue significantly lowering our financial support of such a corrupt organization. If the UN doesn’t like that, then tell them to move to some other country that wants to pay their bills.

spewing tripe....

Ms Clark said “the focus must shift from solving problems after they have arisen to helping to prevent them occurring.” but.... a problem isnt a problem until it manifests itself .... prior to that you are manufacturing a problem... theorizing.... fantasizing .... self pleasuring....

which of course she intends to solve these unmanifested imaginary problems only she can detect or foretell with MONEY...... MONEY FROM THE USA primarily....

HOW ABOUT WE ADDRESS THE EXISTING REAL WORLD PROBLEMS BEFORE WE GO AFTER THE IMAGINARY ONES...... THE ONES ONLY SHE CAN SPOT HEADING OUR WAY....

genius ....... Of course she considers her good self to be omnicient and omnipotent... a godlike persona .... who must be respected and obeyed to protect the folks from themselves and the harmful forces in the universe....
