Funny thing isn’t it? Any day of the week and twice on Sunday, most Republicans consistently call for the US to be out of the UN.

Can you list for me the Republican officeholders who have been consistantly been calling for the US to leave the UN?

Not critical of the UN, those calling for us to leave.

Didn't say officeholders did I? But over the years there's been more than enough talk among conservatives the UN is not only useless but we should be out of it.

And of course you'll be able to provide a Constitutional basis for us sending massive amounts of money to hold up a world court of opinion won't you? (Right after I imagine you can send me the Constitutional basis for all foreign aid). What Rep. Paul did today was the only thing he could do under the Constitution.

No man in his right mind wouldn't condemn genocide. But there's a big difference between condemning it as a private citizen and condemning it as an elected official in the House of Representatives being asked to vote for a resolution to be sent to a world group, thereby removing our sovereignty on the matter. Can Congress not promote a general resolution that our nation condemns it without sending it to the UN? Or are we not allowed to make unilateral decisions without a UN resolution these days....
