When did the UN ever matter? They have no authority in the world, no one pays any attention to what they say or pass as resolutions, and the US basically supports the majority of all they do with our TAX payers money. Screw the UN. I say kick them out of New York and move their asses to Iceland.

2). The stiffling of alternative political philosophies within the U.S. - democratic freedom of expression/choice

Total and utter bull shit. Prove it.

5). Refusal to comply with international efforts of ecological concerns - democratic "majority vote"

Oh really, like China and India. Don't go there you will lose big time.
