There are 47 countries that sit on the United Nations Human Rights Council, (formerly called the U.N. Human Rights Commission), including China, Iran, Cuba, Libya, Mexico, Russia and Saudi Arabia. George Bush wouldn’t have anything to do with it. Obama jumped right in and signed us up. What are they up to now? They claim the U.S. is in violation of respecting human rights.
That’s right. Countries like Saudi Arabia, where woman basically have no rights. And Cuba, where if you speak your mind in opposition to the government you’re likely to find yourself dragged out of your home in the middle of the night never to be seen again.
Mexico is complaining that racial profiling has become an all too common practice in some U.S. states. Huh? Why don’t you fix your country before bitching about us not wanting to pay for the illegal’s healthcare and education, among other things. Fix it, and maybe they won’t come over here and suck the life out of our social system.
According to Fox News, (worth a click) from one of the submitted position papers:
It cites the Feds for targeting such far-left organizations as the Puerto Rican Independence Front, the Black Panther Party, the Weather Underground, the American Indian Movement, the Black Liberation Army, as well as “peace activists and everyone in between,” and says that “many of today’s political prisoners” in the U.S. were jailed indefinitely as a result. That repression has increased, the paper argues since 9/11.
Screw ‘em. I think it’s time we bailed on the U.N.

Where politics and sports collide in Northeast Indiana!
The arrogance displayed by the White House never ceases to amaze.
Tuesday, Missourians overwhelmingly voted to pass a measure that would exempt residents from President Obama’s socialist health care mandate. 667,000 Missourians braved 102-degree heat yesterday to send Obama a clear message, “we don’t need your stinkin” health care plan.”
According to The Hill.com, When White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs was asked today what it means that voters in Missouri would vote against the federal mandate, Gibbs said: ‘Nothing.’”
Robert W. Snyder, Jr. 1947 ~ 2010 Bob left us on June 19th after a day of doing what he loved, sailing the BJ at Soldier Creek with good friends and family. Bob was born September 2, 1947, at Mitchel Field AFB, in New York, the only son of Charlotte and Robert Snyder. After serving in the U.S. Navy, he married Connie and they began their life together in Denver. After a few years in Denver, the couple moved to Minneapolis where their son Michael was born in 1970. After a brief stay living in San Francisco they finally made their home in Utah where they raised their son and enjoyed many friends and family. Bob is survived by his wife, Connie, son, Mike (Wendy), granddaughter, Bailey, and sisters, Jean Allstun and Carol (Gary) Davis. Bob lived his life to the fullest and always found a way to have a good time. He had a way of making friends with everyone he met and will be missed by all who knew him. Services will be held Thursday, June 24, 2010 – 11:00 a.m. at Camp Williams, 17111 S. Camp Williams Road (Redwood Rd), Bluffdale, Utah.
