Sheesh. Well, so much for that.

[PRND21]

When we agree we should do.
That being said, Quit the UN.

[boomop1]

They will use it to interfere with us, pay to move their asses out of the US, it is sick out there and getting sicker. George you can't buy these morons out they will always hate us.

Bush signed a Senate bill authorizing the second of three payments of the arrears. Bush said the payment fulfills the commitment he made to U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan in March.

The House approved paying $582 million in back dues late last month, just hours after Annan called for the United Nations to play a major role in the fight against terrorism. In his signing statement, Bush referred to the body's key role in "eliminating sources of funding for terrorist operations."

Gee it looks like the "nj.com" needs a constitutional lesson.

Bush did not sign a "Senatorial bill". He signed a Congressional bill.

This Terrorist Act on America was created by a belief of an international world government system.

How would you like it if the Russians would come into America and tell you what to do?

How you and your family will live, I do not think you will like it.

All over the world, the countries hate us.

For trying to control their lives.

We must get rid of the United Nations.

Instead of welfare to these countries, let them stand up on their own.

It's called FREEDOM.

Bush approves payment on back dues to United Nations, hopes for help fighting terrorism

Bush just made himself a one-termer.

[demkicker]

Throw up. This is where the Bushes and I part ways.

[eniapmot]

Conservatives get made when I say it, but that Helms is a grandstander. He was invited to the UN to give them a piece of his mind, and he made all luvyduvy.

[mancini]

Guess I will put those cheers I was telling you about on hold.

[Glenn]

and said he hopes the money will enhance America's "close bond" with the international body.

Go on record and explain how this is not checkbook diplomacy, please. Show me the wisdom of our leaders.

[Lent]

This is looking better every day. This and U.S. backing for Syria to be in the Security Council and part of the anti-terrorism coalition (hahahaha) is just wonderful.

[ValerieUSA]

no...... bad move..... he may as well blame America for the attack of Sept 11. You can't buy love from people who expect something from you. Not with food in Afghanistan, not with money to the UN, not with a state for Palestinians.

[Ranger Drew]

I can only shake my head. When will these Bush-lovers ever learn. ...I don't think they will until it's too late. There are so many republicans that are in bed with the democrats, and so many of those are New World Order folks. Bush is well on his way to selling out this country to that very NWO. He's not as blatant and publicly arrogant as Klintoon was, but he's still doing it. Ask yourselves...why isn't X42 in jail? Why are so many Klintonian holdovers serving in the Bush administration? Why weren't those overreaching and liberty-stealing executive orders reversed? Why are the borders still open? Why are the land-grabs allowed to continue? Why is he going ahead with illegal alien amnesty when 70%-80% of the American people are against it? ...the questions go on and on. ...flame if you will, my friends. ...but the questions are troubling. ...this child sees danger ahead, and it ain't from OSAMA YOMAMA!

What a well named outfit - UN; as in unneccesary,unqualified,unwanted,and most important, un - United States of America. The UN is part of the problem, why honor them. We will have attacked and got the war over with by the time they get done with their committees and studies to see if they should help us! Between the UN and environmental fruitcakes, I would say I've just discovered another group of terrorists, as far as America being free is concerned.

Sorry Dubya, still support your presidency, but we don't need these losers to help us solve our problem; would take launching nules over having UN military trying to direct our troops - of which I support neither. Believe this is going to be the toughest war ever undertaken and victory will not be obvious becasue of the cowardnous of the adversary, but we will be victorious in the end.

Bush approves payment on back dues to United Nations

There was never any doubt that Bush's boy would do this. Welcome to Hillary's village. Don't get in the showers, those are NOT showers.

$582 million to the U.N.

Silly me! I thought we were trying to cut off funding to terrorist organizations.

Why do I feel like Osma is fixing to get a money drop?

[He Rides A White Horse]

Dear Mr President:

Please reconsider. Perhaps you think that you will be able to keep the lid on them, you very well may be able to, but many of us don't think the next Bill Clinton will have such designs. Some of us recognize the need for certain strategic alliances (ie the relationship between Great Britain and the US), but such alliances must be in the best interests of the United States. Advancing global socialism is not one of our interests.

Thanks in advance,

He Rides a White Horse.

[Alpenkatze]

It really sounds stupid to me when I hear some of these replies. If you don't want us to be in the U.N. (and I don't want us there) then lets work on getting us out. It's not like Bush is able to decide: Well I'm not into the U.N. so during my term in office the U.S. is not going to be a member. And if we as a member agree to pay something then I'd like to pay it. I don't want the world to see America as a nation who's word is no good. Let's talk to those who we voted into office, and get ourselves OUT. Don't call Bush a one-termer because he/we are a man of his/our word.

[goodieD]

fer the love of pete! i'm sorry.. i can't support our president these days..he's acting like a freakin democrap! Throwing money left and right, supporting the UN, 'love-bombing' the Afghans with food and supplies. I'm beginning to think that great speech in the beginning was all yap.

[onedoug]

News from the front, eh?. How disheartening.
