"There will be ecstasy aplenty, I explained, once President Bush signs legislation ending our participation in, and cutting off funding for, the UN and all of its subversive agencies and activities."
This is nice and all, but it's unrealistic to expect a first term President to do such a thing - unless his desire is not to be re-elected.
People say they want out of the U.N. Probably most are sincere. But an event like this would be so huge, impact foreign relations so much, and be questioned so loudly that even those who wanted out of the U.N. might end up not voting to re-elect the guy that did it.
I certainly pray that you are right. I've said all along that we will see the real George Bush in his second term. It's sad that a president cannot serve this country in his first term if he wants to get re-elected.
