No one attempted to answer your question about the hypocrisy of thinking the UN is worthless but at the same time agreeing that we needed to go to war because of the violations of UN resolutions. I think that a non-answer speaks volumes about the credibility of these people.

They hate the UN because its morally bankrupt, inept and incapable of enforcing binding resolutions. But this doesn't mean that everything it does is incorrect. The fact that the Security Council resolutions were passed even with the parasitic terrorist supporitng nations of Russia and China's veto power speaks volumes as to the legitimacy of the resolutions.
You want hypocrisy - look up French, German and Russian foreign policy in the Middle East.

The UN is an anti-US organization. We are in Iraq due to Saddam's failure to live up to his cease fire agreement that was signed after the Persian Gulf War, those resolutions tried to enforce that and the UN would have allowed Saddam to ignore his responsibility indefinitely........

It's not just the cons who hate the UN. I'm not conservative and I wouldn't mind seeing the UN HQ moved to another country.

Don't move it out of the country. Just move it to the Texas panhandle. Then we will see how many of those people show up to do their noble work, if the UN isn't located in New York with the good restaurants and nightlife.

I find it absolutely hillarious that anyone who supports the most currupt Republican government in the history of the US would say they want the UN moved because it's corrupt. :)
These folks only care about corruption when it's not their own.
