This week, China, Russia, and Cuba were elected to the United Nations' Human Rights Council. This trio of countries is among the worst offenders of human rights on the planet.
If this were an election for United Nations human rights abusers, China would bring home the gold medal. No amount of double-talk about regional representation or anything else can justify this travesty. This is yet another example, as if one was needed, showing not just how useless the U.N. is, but how corrupt and downright immoral it is.

Foxy Loxy, Br'er fox, and Fantastic Mr. Fox voted to be in charge of the Hen House Welfare Council.
Reality is more absurd than fiction. Most absurd of all is that we are the number one primary funder of at the most powerful world wide anti-American organization. Ponder that...

Which is why, in a nutshell, I don't support the U.N. EVER!

The UN is the exemplar of the American Left's dream for the USA. They are working relentlessly toward an America that is post-national, racialist in every aspect of its being, anti-family (the "village" will raise your child whether you want us to or not), kleptocratic, despotic, inhumane to the weak, pusillanimous to the strong, and, above all, undemocratic, opposed to a republican form of government, and fanatically in support of the political over the personal.

We know it's absurd but the leaders of these people-tormenting communist countries can bring up the shield of defense provided by the UN when fingers are pointed their way. See, the rest of the world doesn't think we abuse our people, why do you?

The UN has devolved into an organization who's main focus seems to be to redistribute US wealth, while weakening our economic and military strength. It's way past time to end our participation in an organization dedicated to our collapse as a country.

I really don't know why people are surprised by this. Precedent was set years ago when Libya was given a spot on this council as a sop. But I agree, time to boot them from our shores.

We need to recognize that these positions are filled based on dependencies and relationships, not someone's ideals. We either need to change the process, or get out. I think get out, and remove any legitimacy of these organizations for speaking under the camouflage of altruism.

Please Mr. President, end our support of the corrupt UN and evict them from our shores. Let them set up in Pyongyang or Tehran where they belong.
