sorry but anything having to do with the U.N is a joke.The organization is a disgrace and we should have pulled out many years ago.while the idea of Mar 21 is awesome the U.N itself is an utter disaster.

budo13......I hate to burst your little bubble about the U.N.....but, did you even know we started the United Nations? Or does that even matter to you!
I doubt it matters to you at all knowing how you think!

The UN does a great deal of good. There are lots of immunization programs, etc that would die on the vine without UN support.

The UN is a joke, and a bad one at that.

I'm I the only one that has noticed how quickly this thread has taken a nose dive, just because one person has an issue with something that is only remotely relevant to topic ?

You are saying the United Nations is a joke? With all the good that is done world wide to feed the starving, to furnish medical care, to build bridges,roads and infrastructure......calling the U.N. a joke is the best you can do!
And you call yourself an intelligent American!
Because in my opinion it is people that think like you do....that is the problem! There is no telling how many wars that have not happened because of the United nations. Many millions of people are alive today because of the good works of the U.N.! Most crippling diseases have been eradicated because of the great work of many of the member nations working together to wipe out killing viruses and bacteria!
Yet, you said the U.N. is a joke!
How can you say that?

I think the UN has a lot of good to it, but may not be as "sufficient" as it once was.

I'm glad some are so far removed from discrimination that they can joke about it....well not really actually I think it's kind of insensitive, and, possibly even deliberately so.

I wonder if the blacks will make as much progress in the field of eliminating racial discrimination as the whites have?
For instance negroes will call each other the "N" word repeatedly and thats OK, but in an overt demonstration of their racial prejudice if a caucasion calls a negro the "N" word that is fighting words.
Certain negroes like Obama distrust all whites.
Kwanza contains a racial covenant to recycle dollars only in the negro community.
Negroes conduct black Miss America pagents, Black Chambers of Commerce, and operate Black Colleges and Universities. Should whites label their activities "for whites only" that would be deemed to be racist, but when the blacks do it is seems to not be a problem. There is a double standard here. It is time to eliminate Black this and Black that, including universities and colleges.
There must be an attempt to stamp out, root and branch all hyphenated Americanism, such as Afro-Americanism and simply all of us be Americans of equality of social standing and opportunity without any form of institutionalized racism.
America is a "melting pot" and hyphenated Americanism indicates "clumping" and a refusal to meld into a blended whole society.
One of the first things the blacks can do to foster social harmony is to dispense with particularly Afracanized modes of dress, slurred lazy-tongued speech with the use of street language formerly discribed as "Jive" and now regarded as the rehabilitated phrase "Eubonics" and to blend in with the rest of America by abandoning ghetto life in favor of appearing as does Dr. Bill Cosby rather than portraying themselves as being some sort of "street gangsta."
A committment to marriage, bringing up children in lawful wedlock, a disavowal of the use of illegal street drugs or violence would also help us bridge the gap that exists between those of one culture who harbor a grudge for not being accepted and the culture of those who simply want their black friends to "fit right in" in the manner of their dress, language, and the solving of problems through a meeting of the minds instead of drive by shootings.
Social misfits of all races are the problem. Those who abide by the social contract and make an effort to fit in and succeed may become anything that they may so desire, judged for the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.

Excellent Posts ParaLegal...
I agree with you 100%.
Racism is still alive and well..but its reverse racisim..Whites cant have any 'white' organization....I think we should start some anyway...
the UN..no way..corrupt...corrupt..through and through..
Yes...they do feed people etc..but at this time..they are corrupt..
They have been proven to mostest children and the organization is just plain corrupt..
This is why the NWO is never going to be a good thing..It cant work because those running it are corrupt..
