re :So we have the people in the Ozarks, and you have the people to your north. ;-)

LOL not bad for a colonial

[halfright]

How do we start the process of revoking Diplomatic immunity?

I've had enough...Get out! Get out and take all of Ali Babba's thieves with you. Turn that prime real estate into condo's.
Don't give those bastards a dime of my tax money.

Pompous jackass...

Perhaps this Brit twit doesn't know that the Middle American knows too much about the outlaws in the UN....about the parody it has become when it seats Saudi Arabia and Libya on the Human Rights Commission, when it shovels our tax dollars into Sadaam's pockets all those years while Iraq's starving children fronted for the "Oil for Food" rip-off. No, thanks to Rush and Fox, we know way too much about this vile cluster of crooks from all over the world. We consider it a waste of money, a place where inferior nations poke a ridiculously long-suffering USA in the nose while we feed their citizens because their governments are too evil and stupid to manage workable countries. Get the US out of the UN! It should have been done back in the '80s when the great Ronald Reagan was President.

Sex scandals involving UN peacekeepers, the corrupt administration of the UN's oil-for-food programme in Iraq and the organisation's reluctance to support the US-British invasion of Iraq have all fed American dissatisfaction with the UN.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Notice the WORD "reluctance."

This is typical spin, the UN refused outright to enforce its mandate and rules against Iran, with France , Germany and Russia in opposition, fueling an Oil for food ( actually oil for WMD which were hastily removed, where did the latest generation of French surface to air missles found at Bagdad International come from?)scandal, ALL WITH THE DESIGN TO WEAKEN THE US DOLLAR AND GIVE UNTIMELY STRENGTH TO THE EURO. So we "reluctantly" invaded Iraq.

Never has a president of the US been more right.The USA is hauling ash for Europe, and actually protecting it from a social devolution towards Muslim rule.

The UN needs to be shut down in NYC and extridited to the Hague. The sooner the better. Then we should run a couple of passenger aircraft into it's buildings as part of the demolition process.

"Anyone in Middle America willing to lend the UN a vacant barn for its new HQ?"

Move the UN HQ to any country other that the US and then quit the UN.

[Mac1]

well said; there appears to be a lot of people willing to shoot their mouths off without thinking.

[LibLieSlayer]

UN OUT OF US... US OUT OF UN... NOW!

LLS

Mr Malloch Brown's speech was delivered at a conference sponsored by two think tanks, the Center for American Progress and the Century Foundation.

Both "think tanks" are joined at the hip to Soros.

[SMARTY]

"...US administration was happy to use the UN as a diplomatic tool..."

Not THIS administration. THIS administration clearly exposed the UN for what it is... an overfunded, toothless, biased, ineffectual, corrupt, ill-managed and antiquated diplomatic throwback which only an equally corrupt and ineffectual administration could ever credit. This clown is just feathering his own nest and should understand that after repeated and very public UN failures in enforcing their own resolutions in Iraq, Bush, the American voters and the US military yanked the fig leaf off that whole stinking sewer.

[Bear_Slayer]

The sniping has not even started.

[libs_kma]

"United Nations and the organisation is frequently and routinely portrayed as an anti-American body that coddles and makes excuses for dictatorial regimes around the world while proving itself unable to live up to the lofty goals it sets itself. Sex scandals involving UN peacekeepers, the corrupt administration of the UN's oil-for-food programme in Iraq and the organisation's reluctance to support the US-British invasion of Iraq have all fed American dissatisfaction with the UN."

Funny. I thought that was the UN Mission Statement.

Herrnstein & Murray (The Bell Curve) meet affirmative action.

GET US OUT OF UN
GET UN OUT OF US

"Anyone in Middle America willing to lend the UN a vacant barn for its new HQ?"

Though a vacant barn would really be too good for them, I don't think there will be any takers. Who would want that band of international thieves to come live in their town?

Remember when the cafeteria workers in the UN building went on strike and walked off the job? Those "highly paid, highly respected" (I just threw up in my mouth) people of the UN world body swarmed over that place like a plague of locusts. When they were done, there wasn't anything edible left, and some of those pieces of international crap even took the silverware, glasses and trays.

It should shock people, but considering who works there it was just business as usual, but the crime was on a smaller scale.

[Calvin Locke]

low-life crooks,

Huh? They live the high life, at our, and Japan's expense. (I don't remember any other double digit contributors)

Didn't they wait to help the tsunami victims until a 5-star hotel was cleaned up? Meanwhile, Australia got an airfield
restore, and the US and Japan were right behind...

[ohioman]

Hey Tony. I hate Brit lefties (like this scum) equally as much as American lefties. IF we were both like these eunuchs back in WWII, I would be typing this in German. (Or I might be a Shade on a frilly lamp.)

Oh yeah, my family is from Appalachia. I'll be damned but we all have English ancestry (With some Scott-Irish thrown in there).

[redgolum]

Jokes about teeth always go down well, because I can then come out with my joke about the USN getting rid of Carriers because they can use the average American butt as a flight deck.

Come on now, the new STOL aircraft aren't quite that good. Maybe a helicopter carrier? That and we don't need anything but our horses and six guns to take over the world! /joke

On a more serious note, how does England look for the World Cup?

[newcthem]

Since Middle America is largely paying this pompous @sshole's paycheck (with the exceptions of bribes and sex) I believe we have the first right to say STFU.

[Durus]

If those "certain Freepers" thought a moment they would realize that the British are perhaps our strongest ally in the war against islamisists. They very well might be our strongest allies period.
The Secratary-General of the UN is a drooling socialist idiot stooge but that isn't the result of being a Briton. After all we have quite a few home grown moronic socialists of our own.

In response to the quote "Stop the sniping at the UN"
Dear Secratary-General (or whatever improbable title that professional bureaucratic lickspittles bestowed upon you),
Be thankful that our sniping is merely the slinging of words.
