RE: Senators Graham and Ensign Attempt To Enforce U.N. Cooperation

WASHINGTON -- U.S. Senators Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) and John Ensign (R-Nevada) today introduced legislation laying the groundwork for a full-scale, thorough investigation into alleged corruption at the United Nation’s oil-for-food program. Without a proper accounting, U.S. contributions to the U.N. general budget would be cut by 10 percent in FY 2005 and 20 percent in FY 2006.

This will be a good gauge at how hot this issue really is. I think our invasion of Iraq has the rest of world suitably scared that we just might get out of the UN. Maybe we can find a middle ground with a set of reforms that will prevent future genocides and corruption. We could call is something nice like, UN reforms to improve the effectiveness and accountability.

Evolution Again

Here we come to an interesting question: Do the superior pass along their genes more reliably than the inferior? In primitive tribal societies do we observe that the brighter have more children than the not so bright? Do the most fit men breed with the most fit women, or with the most sexually attractive? As a matter of daily experience, a man will go every time for the sleek, pretty, and coquettish over the big, strong, bright, and ugly. I mention this to evolutionists and they make intellectual pretzels trying to prove that the attractive and the fit are one and the same. Well, they aren't. (5) If intelligence promotes survival, why did it appear so late? If it doesn't promote survival, why did it appear at all?
