The U.S. should get the hell out of the U.N.

I agree but why don't we. We have a Congress and Executive branch that says the UN is irrelevant but when was the first or last time anyone of them has declared us out of the UN.
There is nothing that makes us stay or participate but our government.
Write the President and Congress and demand they pull us out.

Actually that's not the claim being made by the executive branch. It's true that prior to the late war, it warned that the UN risked becoming irrelevant (as if that were a bad thing), but since then it's been singing high praises of the UN. It was Kofi's own envoy who put together the Iraqi governing council.

The "executive branch" has stated over and over again that it intends to make the UN as relevant as possible. And that's a serious problem that too many conservatives aren't willing to face.
