Good for Coburn; that is what he needs to do. Defund the Left and turn the funds over to the VA; SOME of that money will be used to help veterans.

Support Our troops PING!
I note with sadness that the one and only response to this thread was at least 4 hours ago.
Almost everyone on Free Republic is in strong support of our troops. This needs way more attention.

Clearly, providing much needed care to all disabled veterans who sacrificed to protect our nation and secure peace abroad should be a higher priority than dumping more money into the bloated and mismanaged U.N. bureaucracy.

Let's continue to care for them. To heck with the U.N., our disabled Vets come first!

The Commie’s currently running the show in D.C. have their heads in clouds of Globalist gases, and are breathing deeply. Their high is their own self importance in all matters pertaining to the ideology attached to the One World scenario, and their Commie agenda.

2010 we must reach up and pull the chain to flush the Congressional bowl of all the Leftists up for election, and in 2012 we must continue pulling the chain to ensure all of the Leftist gasbags are flushed from the system. Some will remain for 2016, and we must flush them from the system as well. Not a speck of the Leftist residue must remain in the Congressional Bowl. Democrats, Progressives, Greenies, RINO’s. If it’s Left it must go.

Perhaps then we can get this Nation under control, and the Hell out of the useless UN.

I am still a little surprised. We need phone calls asap. People read but do they DO anything?
This is important. It’s easy to pay lip service. Support means SUPPORT. PLEASE, y’all. Call the number!
We owe these guys and gals eveything. The UN is anti-American on its face. I would prefer they get NOTHING from us, but if a few of our dollars can be subtracted from funding them and used to fund those who probably did more for the UN participants than the UN ever has, this needs our support and it needs it now.

What does it take before the United States wakes up and realizes the UN is more of a burden than its worth. Time to get out of the UN.

Tomorrow morning the Senate will choose between funding care for disabled U.S. veterans or subsidies for United Nations (U.N.) bureaucracy.

It is beyond DISGUSTING that they should even have to *choose*.

I will make that call.

I bet if jim rob took a poll on threads where there were few comments, but call for action..percentage of people who took action would be high. I am surprised there haven’t bumps by the activists though.
