Thanks RET, well said.

I do have a question and possibly RET or others would care to address it. Why are we still members of the UN? I don’t ask this lightly or in a facetious manner.

Is it that we as Americans think we can actually change or influence these buffoons? That we can curtail the corruption? That we can monitor the billions of dollars we give the UN? Are we afraid that if we leave some “resolutions” are going to be imposed on the United States of America? If so, who is going to enforce them, the UN?

The whole edifice at Turtle Bay houses nothing, with rare exception, but an international collection of bloviators and con artists, if not down right thieves and murderers.

At the very least we should throw this garbage out of our country and let NYC make better use of the property. I’m sure the EU would love to accommodate them.
