I'm all for ending the UN. But only after we abandon the combustion engine and running water. I mean, if we're going to take giant steps backwards, let's be men about it and go whole hog.

Any American that would advocate abandoning the UN is unpatriotic and an idiot. Yep, that's you. The trend of the world is TOWARD world government/order of SOME KIND, sooner or later. If we abandon the UN, then we will face ANOTHER kind of world order -- but only probably after another world war. We've seen this scenario before folks. So, given that SOME KIND of world order is inevitable, why not stick with the kind where we have the almighty VETO???? If we do this thing again, it will probably be done more fairly, and we won't get to be one of the 5 elite of l33ts. Accordingly, because we have such a powerful position within the UN, the patriotic American should argue we need to FIX it, not abandon it.

Abandoning the UN would only be more proof of one of my favorite quotes:
We learn from history that we do not learn from history. -- GWF Hegel.
