Too bad you decided to take the personal comment route again, Dane. Rowdee and I aren't alone here in stating our disapproval of the U.N. Dan from Michigan, for example, who I believe is a very dedicated Republican and who voted for Bush, thinks the U.N. is bad news, too.

Again, here's the quote on which I remarked:

Every civilized nation here today is resolved to keep the most basic commitment of civilization. We will defend ourselves and our future against terror and lawless violence.

The United Nations was founded in this cause.

Do you think the U.N. was founded in that cause?

Well, it wasn't.

And I've never made it a secret that I think the U.N. sucks wind.

Neither have many loyal Bush supporters on this board.

Care to slap them around for "not being able to see the forest for the trees"? I'll really dig seeing the results of that. **g**

Blah, Blah, Blah, same old, same old from Mercuria. I guess you didn't read the speech Mercuria, where Bush basically said shove it to the UN.

But that does not matter to you. Bush could have said I am going to burn down the UN and you would still be complaining in the wilderness.

You will never be satisfied and always complain.

What Bush said-->Every civilized nation here today is resolved to keep the most basic commitment of civilization. We will defend ourselves and our future against terror and lawless violence. The United Nations was founded in this cause.

What Bush conspicuously did not say -->The U.N. and all the nations here today are resolved to keep the most basic commitment of civilization. We will defend ourselves and our future against terror and lawless violence.

U.N. -- *Smack*

You can argue all you want on what principles Bush should have said the UN was founded on -- I will applaud that Bush clearly leaves out praise for what the UN is today.

Mercuria -- *Wink*
