May the day come when we find a, uh, reasonably diplomatic way of kicking asses. So much of this crap from other countries is just freakin' posturing.

Maybe we need to kick ass and take names more often. Instead of this pc bs. Just saying.

While Sessions has been the biggest disappointment of Trumps appointees Haley has been a pleasant surprise. She's the female John Bolton. I see a good future for her in the conservative ranks.

Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless.

A refreshing start would be a re-evaluation of where all of our foreign aid money goes to.

In addition to telling them face to face, the US has sent formal letters to UN ambassadors about this upcoming vote. Love it!

Yep and anybody who votes against us immediately will have any and all foreign aid cut off and will not be considered for aid for a period of 10 years and no help for any natural disasters. Now that we understand each other let’s vote!

I recall a line by John Wayne in Rio Bravo "We will remember that you said that".
We have a President who has lived by the Golden Rule - He who has the gold, rules.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Money talks and BS walks. Withdraw aid to any country casting a vote against the US, and then withhold all US contributions to the UN and IMF. Let's see how much the UN can do when American dollars are no longer a part of the equation.

I really can't think of anyone better in that position than Nikki Haley. I couldn't be happier with how she represents the US.

Unfortunately, we won't defund our participation in the UN like we need to. Defunding the UN might disrupt some peoples retirement plans, mortgages, and vacations and we've been lectured that we just can't do that.This message has been edited. Last edited by: jljones,
