#2 This should be greeted with as much enthusiasm as "Hello, I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help you."

The DOD and the CDC are the most competent Government agencies around, and both deserve more money flung at them.

#4 The United Nations has degenerated into a welfare program for people who can't find real work. They are an unelected, unrepresentative bureaucracy that usually creates more problems than they ever even ATTEMPT to solve. It's time to cut the umbilical chord on this piece of garbage, and let it sink into New York harbor. Then we can tax the rest of the world to clean up the environmental damage the UN caused.

#5 Here's a supposedly ancient Chinese saying I found in a book I read recently: "Pride allows a man to stand tall, but doesn't feed his empty belly." The United Nations speaks lavishly about restoring Iraq's "pride", but they expect the United States to rebuild and feed Iraq. The UN would prefer the US do it through the United Nations, but why pay a middle-man half when you can do the work yourself?
