They don't pay US income tax either.

I was not referring to foreign diplomats. US citizens who work for the UN do not pay US income tax.

My sister works for the UN. While obviously I have no doubt she would lie to me. I believed her when she was complaining about her taxes being too high. I was surprised when she said she pays an income tax to some sort of World Fund.
She lives in New York.

Maybe we need a "Count the Silverware Ball II" in NYC when they have the welcome back parade for our returning troops?

Wonder if there is a small restaurant or bar near the UN mission that would be cooperative in holding a little publicity getting "in your face" celebration of USA's moral vitory over the UN? Just a thought.

How about McFadden's, complete with cement barricades outside, since the Israeli mission is upstairs?

Is the U.N. finally learning that there is no free lunch after all?

My friend the UN lawyer tells me they are interested in nothing but stuffing their faces with caviar.

Said not only silverware but furniture was also missing.

Sounds like the end of the Clinton administration.

Especially at conferences on World Hunger. I'll never forget that either.

You know, the best thing that could happen would be for the diplos to not hold back. They should indulge their criminal impulses whenever they hit. Eventually people will realize that these folks, who are looters straight off the pages of "Atlas Shrugged", do not have anyone's interest at heart except their own.

Burns me up that most of the world thinks this collection of cynical grifters and demented micromanagers is a benevolent organization that we should all defer to...

I keep thinking we could get the congressional act through if we do it in pieces. Like, first we could repeal the Headquarters Act. Make them wonder what's going to happen to them now that they are not on their own sovereign territory any more. Get the rest through later.

The U.N. $600,000 Kitchen

"The United States will pay 600,000 dollars to renovate the kitchen at the residence of the US ambassador to the United Nations..."

"John Negroponte...asked for the funds to remodel and expand the kitchen at his apartment in New York's famed Waldorf-Astoria hotel..."

"'Yeah, it's a lot of money, but it's a lot of work and it's worth it,' said one department official, who like the others, spoke on condition of anonymity."

LOL! Exactly!

I emailed this story to Rush, Glenn Beck, Hannity, and Phil Valentine. I truly hope that somebody picks it up tomorrow.
