You know, some people make an issue of our anything goes society and explain that that is why so many Muslim nations hate us. Yet when a US delegate to the UN emphasizes the importance of abstinence and monagamy as important ways to prevent the spread of AIDS, here is what happens:
Jeers and catcalls greeted the top U.S. delegate to a global women's conference on Friday as she stressed Washington's opposition to abortion and support for sexual abstinence and fidelity.
This was after removing a controversial anti-abortion ammendment from a key UN document. Does the UN have any real purpose anymore other than to oppose anything that the US supports?
I think I want one of those "US out of the UN, UN out of the US" bumper stickers.
