THE UN NEEDS TO GO!
by Buck Evinger
The United Nations has to go! It took a while longer, but like the League of Nations, the UN has become a farce. It is a useless gathering of appointed paper pushers and pontificators whose main purpose is to bash the United States. Read the paragraph below while I bang my head on the desk.
The Bush administration yesterday pledged $15 million to Asian nations hit by a tsunami that has killed more than 22,500 people, although the United Nations’ humanitarian-aid chief called the donation “stingy.”
“The United States, at the president’s direction, will be a leading partner in one of the most significant relief, rescue and recovery challenges that the world has ever known,” said White House deputy press secretary Trent Duffy.
But U.N. Undersecretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Jan Egeland suggested that the United States and other Western nations were being “stingy” with relief funds, saying there would be more available if taxes were raised.
“It is beyond me why are we so stingy, really,” the Norwegian-born U.N. official told reporters. “Christmastime should remind many Western countries at least, [of] how rich we have become.”
“There are several donors who are less generous than before in a growing world economy,” he said, adding that politicians in the United States and Europe “believe that they are really burdening the taxpayers too much, and the taxpayers want to give less. It’s not true. They want to give more.”
Yo, Jan, SHUT UP! Within hours of the tidal wave disaster the United States was springing into action with direct and indirect aid. Most of the relief organizations on the ground helping people would not exist without public and PRIVATE funding from the United States and it’s citizens.
And what is this about raising taxes? YOU JUST DON’T GET IT! The American people, unlike the French, Norwegians and other European talkers don’t have to be taxed into giving. When there is a need this Christian nation rises up and answers the call. We don’t need the elites telling us what to do and when to do it. That’s why America is the world lone superpower. AMERICANS! We work hard, we play hard and we are compassionate.
Right now thousands of churches and civic groups across this country are praying and organizing. Serivces will be held and relief will be sent, in the form of money, food and clothes. It is happening, now, and all without the prompting of some pompous government ass directing it.
Jan Egeland is typical of the mindset at the United Nations and more evidence of why it must be revamped or dumped on the trash heap of history. George Bush stood before the UN and said if they did not act in Iraq and enforce the resolutions the UN would become irrelevant. He was right. The United Nations has become nothing more than an America bashing bingo party that lines the pocket of crooks and gives people “smarter than you” a chance to tell you how it ought to be.
Stand back and watch how America leads the way in helping the ravaged nations of the fareast recover from this tradgedy. Then watch how the American consumer rebuilds those nations by purchasing their goods and services and creating jobs and industry. How can we do it? BECAUSE WE’RE NOT TAXED TO DEATH.

THE LETTER TO EUROPE
I received “The Letter to Europe” from someone who writes on this site.
I sent it to a dear friend living in London, and just received his response.
I was just wondering if anyone would like to read the thoughts of a person living in Europe, as in relation to that which we believe.
If so, just respond, enough responses, and I will Post
Otherwise, it will be on my website by tomorrow,
This person is very aware of current events, very informed, educated, and I think his words should be at least, read.
I believe that it is important for us to know the thoughts of those living in Europe.
Europe thinks it is important to know the thoughts of Americans!

NO IDEAS, NO FUTURE
By Buck Evinger
Hello bloggers, mutants, liberals and the righteous! I’ve been absent from the site for a while, but I have really been enjoying the back and forth between chillliberal, JD, Suzanne and others. Now for some random thoughts.
It’s always amazing how modern liberals, chilled or at room temp, offer only insults when confronted with todays serious issues. Where are the alternative ideas?
SOCIAL SECURITY: Everybody agrees that social security needs to be fixed. Right? George Bush has jumped on this third rail of American politics where nobody else dared tread before. His suggestion of “considering” the idea of partial privatization is just that, an idea. It needs debate and further study. What is the liberal response. GEORGE BUSH WANTS TO DESTROY SOCIAL SECURITY. HIDE YOUR BABIES! HE HATES PUPPIES TOO! Nancy Pelosi has become a caricature of modern liberals. They have no ideas. The only idea liberals offer to save social security is to raise taxes and put more money into it. God knows it’s worked famously for education….wait….I mean…well uh…Well it might work! Taxation and government dependency are the only things that keep liberals and the modern Democratic party in power. Dance with the one that brung you! (That’s a Texas saying.)
IRAQ: The secret is out. Rummy and Bush want our soldiers to get killed, that’s why they purposely withheld armor plating from the humvee’s and personel carriers. THOSE BASTARDS! It was probably all Dick Cheny’s idea. He was driven to madness by his lesbian daughter andthe millions of dollars being funneled into his pocket by Haliburton. DOES THAT SOUND ABOUT RIGHT! Well to hear the liberal tripe in the mainstream media and the blogosphere, that is the secret plan.
The fact is the United States military has made incredible accomplishments in just a few short years. The plan to take the fight to the terrorists, set in motion after 911, is working famously. It is war, so there will be mistakes, setbacks, miscalculations and errors. That is the nature of war. If the U.S. and the rest of the world were perfect in every respect, THERE WOULD BE NO WAR! The spineless Euro-Cowards, Tony Blair excluded, chose to sit this one out because they lacked the moral courage and will to do what was right. They chose the status quo over doing the right thing. Besides, why upset the oil-for-food cash flow?
IRAN: Would you morons who constantly harp about America supporting puppet regiems please shut up! America is in this world, just like every other nation and we have to make choices. To suggest that America has the ability to determine who would and would not lead a nation is assinine. We can only lend our support to those we think would serve our bests interest. AND WHAT ELSE SHOULD WE DO! America backed the Shah of Iran, to avoid a mullah-cratic takeover of Iran. We failed. The Shah was no saint, but history has proven that he was the better alternative, punctuated by millions of Iranian tortures and deaths at the hands of so-called religious leaders.
THE NEXT FOUR YEARS: If you thought Bush’s first four years were interesting…. The entire world, our friends and enemies alike, were holding their breath, waiting to see if Bush would be re-elected. Now that he is back in office the war on terror will accelerate. Our enemies are becoming more and more desperate. We are winning. They are scared.
The Democrats had better wake up our they will join the trash heap of history along with the Whigs, the Bathists and the Communist Party. Government control is not the answer. Moral relativism is not the answer. Yes there are shades of gray, BUT THERE IS ALSO BLACK AND WHITE!
Speaking of black and white, the Democrats have lied to minorities for to long. There is an awakening happening among blacks and hispanics. As those communities become more educated and prosperous with each subsequent generation, the realization that they have been, to quote Malcom X, “hoodwinked and bamboozeled” is starting to emerge. They are starting to realize that the Democratic party is run by rich white people, and by black leaders who earned their bones by paying homage to those rich white liberals.
It’s starting to sink in with the hispanic community as well. The growing hispanic minority population is a threat to the black political power base and presents conundrum for the Democratic party. The hispanic community was not raised on the lie of welfare. Most came to this country to escape poverty and to work, and hispanics born in this country were born into a different community mind set. How do you preach welfare and government dependence to people who were instilled with a “work and you will prosper” ethic?
Yes, the next four years will be very interesting, but if liberals don’t start coming up with some new ideas….the future doesn’t look very good.
