I agree with this article, but my question is this: What would happen if President Bush said that we are leaving the UN effective immediately? There are so many positives that would come out of it, and I guess the negatives would be politically for the Repubs. I wonder if that will ever be a possibility in our lifetimes?

Can the US force the UN to reform itself? I mean really reform itself, not just get-Kofi-off-the-hook reform. Well, look at it this way: with hindsight, the UN was most effective when it was least effective thats to say, the four decades between Korea and the Gulf when the Cold War mutually assured vetoes at least accurately represented the global stand-off. Now, however, were in a unipolar world. And, as a result, the UN is no longer a permanent talking-shop for the worlds powers but an alternative power in and of itself a sort of ersatz superpower intended to counter the real one. Consider the 85 yes-or-no votes America made in the General Assembly in 2003: Short answer: NO
