Obama Runs Away And Joins The Circus

It took a Barack Obama to put America in the United Nations circus known as the Human Rights Council. And true to his dedication, it has resulted in America being the target of a human rights investigation by the world-renowned U.N. circus clowns. Lead clowns in this farce are China, Cuba, Libya and Saudi Arabia. No wonder kids are scared of circus clowns.

Cirque de Soleil it ain't. Joining the clowns listed above are Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, Russia, Algeria, Bolivia and Nicaragua in supporting roles. The closest thing I can think of to compare this with would be Adolf Hitler investigating the Jews for violating human rights in Germany.

It wasn't bad enough that we have been the U.N. sugar-daddy since its inception, but now Obama and his "citizen of the world" nonsense have allowed us to be subject to the jurisdiction of a body that spends its entire time patting itself on the back while creating anti-western agitprop. And the hits just keep on coming. Already, the Cuban ambassador has demanded that the U.S. end its quarantine of Cuba because it is a crime of genocide. Never forget that the United Nations plays fast and loose with words like "genocide," "hate," "war crimes," and of course, "Islamophobia."

North Korea has indignantly admonished the United States about American inequities and iniquities in housing, employment and education. The same country that is starving its own citizens to death while they languish in shacks unprotected from the brutal Korean Peninsula winters has decided that America is just too tough on mortgagees and renters. Libya has hopped aboard accusing the United States of racism, racial discrimination and intolerance. Perhaps they didn't take a good look at the President who got us into this mess before launching their criticism.

Previous to America taking center ring in this circus, U.N. Special Rapporteur Doudou Diene telegraphed what America could expect if it became a member of the Council that the Bush administration had shunned. On his travel to the U.S. which consisted entirely of visiting Islamic terror-supporting groups, Diene reported that "Racism and racial discrimination have profoundly and lastingly marked and structured American society. The historical, cultural and human depth of racism still permeates all dimensions of life in American society." He was particularly appalled at the massive discrimination against people of Arab, Muslim, South Asian or Middle-Eastern descent. Dr. Diene--meet Barack Hussein Obama, freely-elected President of the United States. Doudou indeed.

Oh, and by the way, Diene is from Senegal, a Muslim nation and member of the Saudi-funded Organization of the Islamic conference. In case anyone missed his point, he reiterated to the Human Rights Council that America has now joined that he would specifically charge America with racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance if America ever subjected itself to the dictates of the Council. If Obama had an ounce of sense, he would have seen that joining that council was like Daniel walking into the lions' den, with God on the side of the lions.

But, no matter. Obama doesn't think much of America either. Listening to some of his rhetoric about fundamentally changing America and considering the rogues gallery of advisers he has surrounded himself with, there's no doubt that he figured a big helping of self-flagellation was in order. And the U.N. Human Rights Council is exactly the organization to hand us the cat o' nine tails.

Diene's replacement has gone ballistic over Arizona's immigration statute. Says Githu Migai: "This is the sort of statute that opens a floodgate, equips a policeman or such other law enforcement person on the beat with such immense powers as to compromise the very fundamental human rights that ought to be enjoyed in such and enlightened part of the world as Arizona." You can tell from the "enlightened part" that Migai merely pities America, but doesn't hate it quite as much as Diene.

All the Obama administration has done by joining the Human Rights Council is to give legitimacy to a conference of clowns. He has further guaranteed that the United States will have to sit still for vituperation being poured on its head by virtue of its membership. And just in case the Council missed anything, prior to joining the group the Obamists prepared its own report for the Council including its critique of the Arizona statute while at the same time alleging discrimination against Muslim Americans, Native Americans, African-Americans and (the catch-all) other minority groups. Do I need to mention that Obama's report was first submitted to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) for approval and input before its submission to the Human Rights Council?

And the World Apology Tour continues apace. Joseph A. Klein, author of Lethal Engagement: Barack Hussein Obama, the United Nations and Radical Islam sums up Obama's philosophy and willingness to humiliate America extremely well: "We have a president who does not believe in American exceptionalism. Obama believes the United States has historically been too powerful for its own good and bears guilt for its racist past. Don't forget that this is the same man who, back in 2001, criticized our Founding Fathers for 'shackling' the government with 'negative liberties' placing limitations on governmental power rather than specifying what the government 'must do' for its citizens by means of redistributive policies."

I have nothing to add to that.
