The U.N.'s Revenge

Posted on 10/28/2004 8:38:16 PM PDT by icecold

The United Nations appears to have cast its vote in the U.S. Presidential election this week, and it wasn't exactly a secret ballot. It used 377 tons of high-grade Iraqi explosives to announce its opposition to re-electing George W. Bush....The Bush Administration believes heads of U.N. agencies should serve a maximum of two terms. It told Mr. ElBaradei when it supported him for a second term in 2001 that it would not support him for a third. A Kerry Administration might take a different view, especially after this week.

Isn't that what you get when you drink the kool-aid?

That alone is enough of a reason to vote for President Bush (which I did today).

I think it should be clear by now that the UN is the forerunner of the ultimate global social welfare program...

If the UN knew of the move of 377 tons of high explosives, Before the WAR ( This is feasible, because let's face it they were all in cahoots in the Oil For Food Program and they all had a lot to lose with the invasion.)

I would think that it is not that much of a stretch of the imagination to ask if the UN and their cohorts in crime; France, Germany, Russia, and who ever else was receiving payoffs, probably helped with the movement of the WMDS' or at least possiably warned them.

I know we have been told that Saddam was told that France garunteed a block with their vote, but France decieved us before, why should we believe them now?

After we all vote and GW is reelected, we should either clean up the UN or GET OUT!

Prerequisite might be a better word than forerunner, but that's just me. Far too many people believe that socialism will be great once the "right people are in charge". Hell, I'll even agree with that. Problem is there are no "right people".

After Dubya gets reelected, the US can bury the hatchet with the UN...in them! Send them to Botswana or some such oplace.

This Organization has become a den of thieves, it's useless. It used as an organization to rob the US of it's Honor and Integrity. They know that we don't hesitate to help out with aide to other countries, but these bastards have taken advantage of our generosity, over and over again. French and German economies are in the tank. Chirac was promoting a tax for the International poor. I wonder who he has in mind.

With the Oil for Food scandal uncovered, their going to be really hurting. I believe O'rielly did hurt their tourist industry really worse that they care to admit. After GW is elected, the French people will be getting hungry and they will have Chirac for lunch.
Personally I want out of the UN,we can make our own treaties with countries who want our friendship, not leeches like the French have become. Germany will invade Belgium and France again, this time they may as well start to learn to speak German as far as I'm concerned.
