1. Why are we voting for these things?
   Also, do we still give $50 million to China?

2. “The result was the adoption of a record-busting $4.17 billion core budget for 2008-2009, passed by a vote of 142 to 1.
   And who was that lone dissenting member state? You guessed it: as Mark Steyn has called it, America Alone.
   Or is it because the UN system is structured to encourage the mob of member states to treat American money as an all-you-can-eat buffet?”
   Maybe it’s because saving the world from errant ideologies like the sovereign nation state and populist democracy is a big job…particularly for bankrupt commies.
   When a UN tax is ever paid by Canadian citizens, this will signify the end of our sovereign nation and the supreme authority of our elected governments. Before that happens I hope the UN can be reformed back to its original intent…as an international mediation body…not an unelected war making body, an unelected social policy maker, a global cop, a global paramedic, a loan shark, an advocate of every deconstructionist NGO agenda in western nations and a cushy freeload for 3rd world political opportunists.

3. Anyone who votes against the way Rotten Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe voted, has voted the right way.

4. I think the UN Headquarters should be moved to Nova Scotia. Frankly, I’m sick and tired of the whole gang of them.

5. Articles about the lavish spending at the UN are certainly nothing new, they have been around for many years. When you have an unaccountable body spending huge amounts of money that some one else gave them then you have a surefire scenario for waste and corruption. The recent Bali extravaganza is only the latest (if most egregious) example of an unelected and out of control world government in waiting.

6. MCPO Airdale : What did Nova Scotia ever do to you?

7. Oh boo hoo, the US spends more than a billion dollars a week in Iraq. If they have to contribute less than that once a year for the UN’s core budget, I hardly sympathize.
