Mark Steyn: There is no cure for the UN

As a proud American (a member of the only true Superpower)
I would love to see the U.S. get out of the U.N. and get them the HELL out of our country. I do not feel that our role on the world stage is appreciated. All of the est of the world loves us when they have a disaster. (Our Money)
They Love us when they need Military. (The Lives of Our Young Men and of Course Money).
Yet if we want something to change or we want help on something like terror or if we state or opinion the world and I am sorry that I can not excluded Great Britain. Want to call U.S. Murders and Conquers. Or so called Allies G.B., Germany, France Etc. voting against us not for political or moral reason but for financial. I believe that there are some of our so-called Allies should get up each and every morning saying "God Bless America" for there freedom, and the freedoms that they enjoy.
We can not remove our selves from the U.N. for self preservation reasons. I do not now agree with the path the U.N. is now on. I feel that the one of the permanent five should be the only ones with true control in the U.N. To let countries that support terror, violence and servitude. Should NOT have an equal voice. The U.N. should be run by those countries that have earned the right and suffered and rebuilt the world after World War II. I feel that even the Communist nations among the original 5, even they know how far is to far and how to get the right things done. We in America are not perfect, we do make mistakes but if the those other counties in the world hate us because we have prospered were they have failed, we have excelled were the came up short is not or fault. America and Americans have worked hard and have given much to be in the place we are now. It can not be our fault that other countries can not even elect there own Government to help them but they support a Government that oppresses them. People of the world CAN GET OUT FROM UNDER AN OPRESSIVE GOVERMENT. We in America did, we had our Civil War and we had to deal with race relations. We did not always do it right and we did not do it well and some say we have not truly succeeded in everything we have tried. But we do not complain and we go on trying. If America is so bad then WHY do so many foreign nationals want to come here. If we are so bad stay home were you probably will not enjoy the freedoms we give all, but heh you can at least say "I AM NOT AN AMERICAN"
