If there is one thing that the global warming scam has taught us, it’s that it’s time to walk away from the United Nations and be done with their global collectivism once and for all. Their time has come and gone, and whatever the UN once was, they are no longer.

I have been watching all of the news reports coming out of the UN global warming conference in Bali and each one is worse than the last. The message coming from Bali isn’t one of environmentalism; rather the message is that the “rich” nations have a duty to take care of developing nations through money and technology. Of course these demands are being masked behind the guise of global warming and climate change, but the message is clear: to “save the world” we need to give more money.

To which I reply with just two simple words:

Bull Shit.

The United Nations has turned into an organization who’s purpose is to redistribute the world’s wealth and create one big happy planet with a “level playing field” so that all nations can enjoy the benefits of our labor. Sound familiar? It should. This is the message that we have been hearing from the left for ages, and now they have a tool and a cause with which to try to push their agenda on the entire globe.

Has anybody taken a long, hard look at the makeup of the UN lately? They are a little heavy in developing nations these days, which alone should make the rest of us question their objectivity and honesty. Many of the nations who have seats are not exactly “America friendly” and would like to see us suffer for, well, for being us. With this in mind, does anybody really think that the United Nations does things or makes decisions with the developed West’s best interests in mind?

No, of course not. They are going to work to better their own nations; and if they can do it at our expense, all the better.

The Big Green money trail aside, the UN’s role in global warming and climate change is one of a global redistribution of wealth and technology. Is there any better (or deceitful) vehicle for this redistribution than “saving the planet?” It’s a near-perfect plan. Save the world, punish the developed West, prop up the developing nations… There is only one major flaw here, and that is people like us who see right through their insidious plans. Sure we may have hearts of stone, but these cold hearts give s the objectivity necessary to see through the bullshit.

When you see headlines like this coming from Bali:

• Help us combat global warming: Poor nations
• Indonesia: Climate change ‘affects human rights’
• Bali: Poor Countries Demand Climate Change Aid
• Tech transfer to tame climate change
• Rich countries asked to fund poor countries adapting to climate change
• At Bali conference, climate change victims say aid falls short

What does it make you think of? Does it make your heart bleed a little bit and make you want to help all these poor people cope with the horrors of climate change?

Yeah, me either. Maybe I would take these jokers a little more seriously if there was more environmentalist rhetoric, but instead it’s just this tripe over and over again. This isn’t about drowning polar bears. It is about taking our money and technology and giving it to somebody else… And the more guilt they can lay on, the more people’s hearts they will get to bleed a little bit. That’s why we are the global warming public enemy number one.

So what benefit do we really get from being part of the “great” United Nations? I have heard people argue that we are part of the security council, and as such we should remain… But what does that mean? We get to tack our name on to “condemnations” and empty sanctions? In actuality, we get so diluted by the UN that our status as a world superpower is all but lost. Rogue states like Iraq and Iran laugh when the UN makes its empty gestures against them. That is why we went around the UN when we went after Iraq. The UN is absolutely impotent when it comes to legitimate action which is why rogue states all but ignore them.

I suspect that part of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s attitude is due to the fact that the UN is a joke. It’s a hollow threat. If you want to make a statement, what a better approach: using the UN to make a condemnation or the United States, the country who just whooped your neighbor all over the desert, issuing a threat of force?

I can tell you this much, part of being a superpower is not having to legitimize your actions through an organization that does a better job of squabbling amongst themselves than actually taking action. Sure, fine, call me whatever you want. I am an arrogant American. So what? We have the power and there is no reason for us to feel bad about it, which certainly seems to be one of the underlying goals of the United Nations.

So, United Nations, it’s been fun. Thanks for the memories and the cool blue hats. But it’s time for us to leave your little party. Go and save the world from the dreaded global warming monster. We have better things to do.
