A generation ago the Communist tyranny in Cuba demanded that the United Nations condemn America for the embargo. The brutal Castro regime’s rant accused the United States of threatening “nuclear annihilation,” “countless acts of sabotage and plans to assassinate Cuban leaders.” On a cold day in October, the European left-wing activist serving as UN Ambassador announced to applause that her administration would no longer be voting to defend the US at the UN.
"UN Member States have voted overwhelmingly for a General Assembly resolution that condemns the U.S. embargo and calls for it to be ended. The United States has always voted against this resolution. Today the United States will abstain," Samantha Power said. "Thank you," she added, acknowledging the applause.
Under Obama, the United States would no longer defend the United States. A generation ago the Communists had been in Cuba. Now they were in Washington D.C. Instead of defending America, Obama’s chosen representative agreed that our Communist enemies had a point about our lack of human rights and our imperialist foreign policy.
“Let me be among the first to acknowledge – as our Cuban counterparts often point out – that the United States has work to do in fulfilling these rights for our own citizens. And we know that at times in our history, U.S. leaders and citizens used the pretext of promoting democracy and human rights in the region to justify actions that have left a deep legacy of mistrust,” she said.

Before Obama abstained on a UN resolution attacking Israel, he abstained on, and agreed with, a UN resolution attacking the United States.
The Obama administration has attacked both the United States and Israel since they came into office.
I have believed from the beginning that the US presidency is just a stepping-stone to Secretary-General for Zero.
And don’t give me that nonsense about him being “ineligible.”
That’s rayciss!
this can’t be over soon enough.
If, for some weird reason, he does become SecGen of UN, we definitely need to defund and kick them out of the USA...PERIOD
Why would a Kenyan Muslim defend the USA?
Surely this is thr very definition of treason ? And I include the rats in congress who have refused to counter it .
A full criminal investigation into this administrations treachery must be one of the first things Trump does in the WH.
This is not difficult.
The Clinton Foundation raked in over $$$100 million in foreign dollars under the guise of charity.
~5% went to charity, the rest went to buy influence with the Clintons and others in positions of power including Barack Obama.
With Hillary Clinton losing the election and her ability to deliver on promises made to foundation donors severely compromised, instead of returning the money which is being demanded, Hillary and Obama are attempting to do as much as Hillary was expected to do on his way out the door to quiet the donor rebellion.
...and they will continue this subversion out of direct power as well.
There it is. It’s a scam. Nothing more complicated than that.
I don’t know how to fix that, but I know Trump does. I have the utmost faith Trump is going to lead, damn the MSM, damn the polls.
I seen it early on with the way Barry was dealing with the un outside of ‘normal’ very early in his presidency. That is his next step. Its the only bastion of political left power left that he can aspire to and the only way his criticism of American conservatism and promotion of world wide Islamic Jihad can be “legitimately” promoted.
I hope Obammy gets his wish to become Secretary General of the United Nations, then I hope Donal Trump and 90% of Americans get theirs as well and the United Nations is Kicked out of the country with Obama at the helm.
Wouldn’t that be sweet? Let him be Sec Gen of the new HQ in Havana. Or Lagos. Man, to be rid of this guy.
Like all taxes/fees, that will be easily transmogrified to other areas over time.
... I love how you think.
Problem is, when Zero turned ICANN over to them, he gave them the power to assess fees, which makes the UN the de facto world government.
Suddenly those anti-Christ/Beast/False Prophet theories are making a lot more sense.
I’m lost and confused - or dazed and confused is probably more accurate. If this was in October, why are we just hearing about it and what was up for a vote on that day at the UN? I love Greenfield but this isn’t clear to me. Have there been more votes since then when the US abstained before this latest one on Israel?
“”On a cold day in October, the European left-wing activist serving as UN Ambassador announced to applause that her administration would no longer be voting to defend the US at the UN.
“UN Member States have voted overwhelmingly for a General Assembly resolution that condemns the U.S. embargo and calls for it to be ended. The United States has always voted against this resolution. Today the United States will abstain,” Samantha Power said.””
When Zero transferred ICANN over to the UN he gave it the power to collect fees from all nations using the Internet, making the UN the de facto world government with its own source of income.
The ICANN fees will easily be expanded and transmogrified the way government always grows like a metastatic cancer.
That Ben Rhodes is such a putz. (Is that a bad word?) He was being quoted all day yesterday saying that if Israel has evidence of the WH directing the UN Resolution voted/not voted on last week that they need to provide it.
Did anyone from the media tell him if Russia is behind the hacking and interference with the recent election, the WH needs to provide it? Why do they let so many rich opportunities go right by? Oh! I know why - never mind!
This is the day Skippy stomped on the Kennedy legacy. The Dems stood up and applauded.
