Goli Ameri has been appointed by President George W. Bush as one of three public delegates to the United Nations Commission on Human Rights. The 2005 meeting of the UN Commission on Human Rights will take place March 14 through April 22 in Geneva, Switzerland.
The US delegation is headed by former Senator Rudy Boschwitz who has been nominated by the White House for the position of Ambassador to the UN Commission on Human Rights (UNCHR). Senator Boschwitz served in the US Senate from 1978-1991. Former Ambassadors to the UNCHR include Ambassador Jean Kirkpatrick who served in the Geneva post in 2003.
"The United States wants the Commission to better fulfill its mandate to strengthen human rights and fundamental freedoms around the world. I am honored to have been appointed by the president and to represent the United States on the Commission," said Goli Ameri former Republican nominee for Congress in Oregon's first district. "I look forward to actively participating in the upcoming session."
The Commission's annual meeting is an opportunity to focus attention on countries where there are significant human rights problems. The US delegation is also committed to promoting democracy worldwide. In this regard, the United States plans to work with other countries to encourage discussion of ways that the Commission can foster reform in nations that are determined to advance democracy and human rights.
Ms. Goli Ameri is the first Iranian-American to receive a Presidential appointment to this post."
Man, I love this prez!
PING!
You just gotta love this guy. He keeps confounding the left!
Even though I wasnt a huge fan of her's... She ran for US Congress here in Oregon (my district) against David Wu... gave one hell of a fight and dug up a lot stuff on him. I wish her the best!
Next, we need to convince him that the reason the Minutemen exist is because there is a problem with our borders.
Here we go, another hijacking
Well, let's all just email the White House and let him know how we feel. I think he listens, even if he doesn't always agree. If we don't tell him loud and clear, then we can't complain.
Every thread should have a pool as to when one of the thread hijackers shows up. We could use it as a fundraiser for FR.
didn't she discover that Wu had a sexual assault in his past? We need more like her.
So we got a Jewish ex-Sen, Rudy Boschwitz, and an Iranian woman, Goli Ameri. The prez is really hammering home the point to the Muslim world.
LOL, plus... it could be fun :-)
I'll second that!
No hijacking here. And notice, I did not say anything nasty about BUSH and I didn't say it was the end of the world because I disagree with him on that issue. I love the Prez!
OK, No Problem
Agreed. And in that letter we must thank him for all of the good things he has done for America and the world, even if some don't yet understand (Liberating Afghanistan and Iraq especially).
Another knife cut to Iran.

What a choice! This is outstanding and certainly sends a terrific message. :-)
"and an Iranian woman, Goli Ameri"
"Even more humiliating to Muslim fundamentalist, she's an Iranian *Christian* woman. "
If true, she'll need security. Big time.
