I think it's past time to kick out the UN from the US and get US out of the UN. The UN is nothing but a forum giving power and legitimacy to every anti-US tinhorn dictator and allows them to flock together to attack us.

Why couldn't Atta just have flown into the UN building instead?

The outpouring of anti-American rhetoric at the United Nations this week is demonstrating how anger at the United States is uniting the developing world in a way not seen since the 1980s, U.S. officials and analysts say.

Uh, huh. But with hindsight, we know that the U.S. pursued an excellent foreign policy in the 1980's. So this works for me.

I agree. There is no tangible benefit to us taxpayers for this gaggle of haters.

Let's hope it also unites America against these nutcase regimes.

"The fallout from the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and other Bush administration policies may be particularly visible in the new bonds between many Muslim nations and populist regimes of South America, an alliance that some call the "axis of the south."

The enemy of my enemy is my friend - What else should we expect.

That's dumb.

The UN would just move to another, friendlier country and our isolation would deepen. Cutting off our funding wouldn't be any better. Others would pick up the tab and try to pass it on to us. If they failed more poverty would result and we would be blamed.

Our only choice is to argue our position forcefully. Our tinhorn opponents have little going for them except their hatred and jealosy of our wealth and power. They are bound to fail unless they can find better economic and social models than ours.

. . . U.S. officials and analysts say.

If anyone bothered to click-through, were any of them identified?

Question:

How much monetary support does the US give to these countries - either directly or via the UN?

Bet it would pay for a lot of troop supplies and a nice border fence, now, wouldn't it.

These little tinhorn dictators are only parroting the rhetoric of the DemocRATS and what they are reading and seeing in the western "news media." You can't blame them for the things they are saying. They are morons and are just saying the things they think Americans want to hear.

You know what I think of that gang of dictator-enablers and kleptocrats:

Click this picture & go to the "last" for the latest UN scandals:


If you aren't informed about this stuff, you will be made sick. If you are informed, you will be made mad, all over again.

Oh, I get it now. When we have Dem'crat Presidents, the world loves, or at least tolerates us. When we have Republican Presidents, the world turns in lockstep to hate, loath and despise us.

And people thought things were no longer simply black and white.

The underlying factor is, many agencies and governments across the world have as their intention, subversion of the goals of the United States, regardless of who is President. The difference is, Dem'crats won't do anything that is actually effective to counter these subversions, even though they stand out on the front lawn and loudly yell, "I'll call the sheriff on ya, ya buncha whippersnappers!" Then they go inside and find the phone line is cut. Or pretend to, when actually they have just left the phone off the hook.

Republican Presidents, on the other hand, have this uncomfortable habit of assuming the role of sheriff, and join in the pursuit of these drive-by assault teams that knock down our buildings, blow up our embassies, and generally thumb their noses at us, mistakenly believing that the Dem'crat President is still in charge.

The Dem'crat ex-President, of course, does nothing to correct this misconception, and in fact, on a one-man diplomatic mission overseas, actively encourages that continued error of interpretation, which is widely reported outside the US.

While you're at it, send it's foot-soldiers the LAT, the WP and the NYT with it. I'm sick and tired of the anti-American rant from these socialist propaganda mills.

The liberals and leftists in this country are in agreement with this anti-American rhetoric.
