" Are They Really This Stupid!?"

Sometimes people and organizations make it too easy to criticize them. I've certainly had my share of material provided by the U. (useless)N. (nitwits).

Just recently the U.N. put Iran on the women's rights committee. I thought they couldn't possibly top this. I thought they had reached the summit of stupidity; yet they moved to a new level of idiocy, the nirvana of "duncedom".

They have announced their new members of the U.N. Human Rights Council. Put on your seat belts! Libya, a nation who holds political prisoners in communicado, has no rights to free trial, no freedom of the press, no free speech, no free assembly, no freedom of religion; a history of domestic violence against women, and charges of human trafficking is one of the appointments.

Angola, is known for secret detention of prisoners, arbitrary arrests, suppression of human rights organizations and activists; a nation that evicted 10,000 families forcibly from their homes by police and soldiers, is also appointed to the council.

Malaysia, is another country famous for police abuse of detainees, arrest without charge, and severe restriction on religious freedom. The U.S. State Department listed numerous complaints of death while in police custody, human trafficking, and selling children in sex slavery. Yes, they are on the Human Rights Council also.

Uganda ,another appointment is well known for torture, child labor, violence against homosexuals to the extent of punishment up to and including death. Another bastion of human rights on the council.

There are other nations who have been appointed with equally stellar records on human rights, just as bad as the ones previously listed.

If this in itself is not ridiculous enough, last week the United Nations condemned the state of Arizona as an abuser of human rights. The clowns in the U.N. have the audacity to comment on a law, that under close examination, seems to be perfectly Constitutional, and specifically prohibits racial profiling, and unlawful detention. They said the law goes against the "Global Accord" which is binding to the United States! The last time I looked, I wasn't bound by the laws of any foreign body. I am bound by the Constitution of the United States of America.

The hypocrisy of the United Nations is appalling, their logic is bizarre, and their self righteousness is beyond belief. We need to ask ourselves, why are we wasting our time and finances in this organization? As Americans, we are not answerable to this corrupt and ineffectual body of self serving dogmatists. LET'S GET OUT OF THERE!!
