"UN chief rues calling US a 'deadbeat'" by Associated Press | March 13, 2009
UNITED NATIONS - After drawing a rebuke from the White House, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon tried yesterday to smooth over his characterization of the United States as a "deadbeat" for its late payments to the world body.
While, I'll tell you what, sir. Let's DISSOLVE the damn thing and then you globalist sh**ters won't have anything to worry about!
"My point was simply that the United Nations needs the fullest support of its members, and never more so than in these very demanding times," Ban told reporters at UN headquarters.
To think I used to believe in the U.N. ten years ago when I was a hard Massachusetts lefty! Ugh!
The White House objected to Ban's use of the word "deadbeat" to describe the United States during a private meeting Wednesday with lawmakers at the Capitol. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Ban's "word choice was unfortunate," given that the United States is the largest contributor to the UN.
The United States pays 22 percent of the organization's nearly $5 billion operating budget but is perennially late paying its dues.
If it were UP to ME you WOULD NOT be getting ANY MONEY at all!!! Haven't you heard? WE'S BANKRUPT OVERS HERES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday, Ban called his choice of words a misunderstanding.
Oh, look at him backtracking now!
"I noted how generous the United States has been in supporting the UN, both in terms of assessed and voluntary contributions. At the same time, I noted that the United States is also the largest debtor, owing more than $1 billion in arrears," he said.
Like we can afford all that!
Time to SHUT DOWN that WORTHLESS GLOBALIST INSTITUTION!
