(The U.S. is assessed dues amounting to 22% of the overall UN budget each year.)So, is there any chance the US gets 22% of the budgetary authority in return for all that responsibility?

It is worse than wasted. We are funding our enemies dedicated to the subjgation of the US. We need to force the complete overhall of the UN or its replacement with a new organization reflecting democratic values and relative influence in the world. The UN, as presently organized is permanently opposed to the US and is best symbolied by such actions as making Libya the head of the human rights commission, the formerly planned appointment of Iraq as the co=chair of the disarmament commission, and the endless moral equivalence statements of Kofi Annan.
Even worse, it is used for the active conspiratorial planning of such countries as France, Russia, China and Germany to stop the US plans and is a nest of spies on US soil.

Wimp II is leading the charge back to 1933. No. That's Buchanan. HE'S the one who admires Hitler.
France Germany and russia will get the largest contracts for rebuilding Iraq.

The only way that $90 Mega would be worth it is if we were supplying the U-Haul boxes for their pack up and move.
Those babies are expensive!

Correct, I think a Move to Khartoum should be paid for by the US, after all they might actually be able to stop the slave trade then.

Unfortunately, that is not going to happen. Instead our government is spending $600,000 for a US ambassador to the UN to get a new kitchen in his apartment at New York's Waldorf-Astoria hotel. See post #21. They ain't going nowhere, folks.

My sentiments exactly!! The UN is of no use and we should have gotten out of there a long time ago. While I support President Bush on the war, I have EXTREME difficulty agreeing with some of his other positions. I am so sick of this!!
