Watching Hannity & Colmes on the U.N.

Of course they are calling for us to pull out of the U.N. as they are all a bunch of American hating communist. Is that the next move of the regime, to outest the U.N. and further isolate us in the world.

2. Please, can somebody post that priceless screenshot here?

Y'all know the one, that brilliant sign held up on-camera. I don't have it, but it belongs in this thread...that guy in the background give me hope.

3. What's wrong with another country hosting the U.N. ?

One that appreciates it.

4. I don't think there is anything wrong, I just see us further isolating

ourselves and I don't think that's good.

5. If the UN really wants to do some good in the world, it should relocate

out of the U.S. and reconfigure the Security Council.

The unregenerate mouthbreather John Birchers who love to rant about "U.S. out of the UN!" have no friggin' clue about how powerless the UN actually is in relation to the U.S. As long as we hold veto power on the Security Council, there's essentially nothing the UN can do without U.S. sanction.

And as we've seen with the Iraq invasion, the U.S. can ignore the UN at will. The UN is basically just a Western White Man's Colonialist's club as it now stands, easily manipulated by the Ruling Classes of the member countries.

We SHOULD be isolated from the rest of the world. The U.S. imperialist/militarist/corporatist behemoth is the greatest threat to peace and justice on this planet today.

So, yeah, let's have the U.S. pull out of the UN. Let's see our government take unilateral actions against other countries without the cover of invoking UN resolutions to justify our agressions and see how well that works.

8. China could have kept us out of Iraq.

Methinks they just wanted a good laugh.

10. Or maybe they wanted to let us get wore down some before they

make their move.

7. These talking points are recycled frequently on Faux News

This is just the time you would expect them to come out, though they often come around on a regular basis for no reason.

9. Yeah I know they are pretty big on us getting out of the U.N. but

they just seemed to be on steroids tonight about it after today's events. They just hate it when someone speaks the truth about us.
