I thought Jeremiah's speech tonight was great. As usual, it was thought provoking. He is a very intelligent man.

2008 Obama Pork - $29,161,918 in pork bills, either sponsored or co sponsored with Democrat Dick Durbin, so far in 2008. How's that for change and a different kind of politics?

Rev Wright might not be heard from so frequently, but I am sure you can find another hero. There are plenty of them out there.

What a demonstration of the liberal character - yesterday's hero forgotten when the messianic leader casts him off.

Will this "UN person" be Rev Wright in disguise? The UN Human Rights Council is a joke. Undoubtedly they were invited by members of congress who support Obama's candidacy. Just another reason not to vote for that anti-American primadonna.

>U.N. racism investigator to visit U.S.

GENEVA (Reuters) - A special U.N. human rights investigator will visit the United States this month to probe racism.

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.

Diene, a Senegalese lawyer who has served in the independent post since 2002, will report his findings to the U.N. Human Rights Council next year.

However, the United Nations has almost no clout when it comes to U.S. domestic affairs and is widely perceived by many as interfering.
