American Thinker- Print Article

From our "This must be a joke because it's too ridiculous to be true" files comes the news that the UN is going to send an investigator from its Human Rights Commission to investigate racism in America:

A special U.N. human rights investigator will visit the United States this month to probe racism, an issue that has forced its way into the race to secure the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.

The United Nations said Doudou Diene would meet federal and local officials, as well as lawmakers and judicial authorities during the May 19-June 6 visit

"The special rapporteur will...gather first-hand information on issues related to racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance," a U.N. statement said on Friday.

His three-week visit, at U.S. government invitation, will cover eight cities -- Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Omaha, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Miami and San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Race has become a central issue in the U.S. election cycle because Sen. Barack Obama, the frontrunner in the battle for the Democratic nomination battle, stands to become the country's first African American president.

Let me get this straight: The United Nations - a demonstrably racist, anti-Semitic, anti-American organization - is sending some flunky here to investigate racism?

Why? What could the UN possibly tell Americans about race that we don't know already? Why send anyone?

The answer is they want more fodder for their anti-American propaganda machine. Any way the UN can stick it to us, they will.

Does it surprise you that our State Department invited this moron? It shouldn't. Our striped pants people bend over backwards to get slapped by the UN so they may as well take advantage of every shot they can.
