A key House Republican is quickly pressing forward with her goals to scale back U.S. funding for the United Nations.

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.), chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told The Hill that oversight would be a key function of the panel, particularly funding to the U.N. Human Rights Council (HRC) that is "a waste of taxpayer dollars."

Yeah, it's about as functional as the Cats' Commission for the Preservation of Mice.

Cut? I want to see it ceased. I also want'em evicted from NYC.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Let's see if they kill this HELLCARE first, then take it from there.
I get REALLY nervous when they start talking about doing this, and this and that. Start with the HELLCARE bill. One of the most destructive bills ever to come out of the White Mosque.
