Regime change would do some good if it was done at home. I think it's
about time for the UN to step in and put the US in its place....and
take the guns away from the rednecks while they're at it.

The US should PULL OUT from the UN, it's a useless organisation made up
of sleazy louche Turd World US - haters...

Since we pay MORE into the UN coffers than any other nation we should
simply pull the plug -- the appeasing whiners can trot off to Paris or
Geneva or Pyongyang or Havana for all I care...I as a taxpayer am quite
tired of the UN sucking at the US monetary tit.

Besides which the UN building in NYC would make a GREAT condo complex,
Donald Trump could do wonders with it...time to put that prime piece of
real estate to some practical use.

No. Do both. They're not there by their own choice.

Sure it is. It's about all those things. And if this war were a real
war, in which we all were involved viscerally, you'd understand that,
too. But it's not. It's a sham war, where certain people send certain
other people under their nefarious control to die in order to create
the imprimatur of power.

Send the ****ing cookies. And a letter reminding them how they were
shafted by a coordinated conspiracy to lie to Congress.

Oh, that's ironic as hell coming from you...chicken is as much a
vegetable as fish is...
