Not to put too fine a point on it, fuck the UN.
If they can ever acquire some amount of legitimacy on their own, as in without us paying the lions share of the bills and without us financing half of the countries involved and can show the kind of sense necessary to keep countries like Cuba and Libya off of the board of Human Rights then I'll, maybe, consider taking them seriously as a political power.
