Hillary is steamed at the President for urging her to try again. I don't know if she's foolish enough to rise to the bait, but I doubt she could endure even a shorter campaign than last time or even raise enough money to make a good showing. I also doubt she'd get much support from the DNC, think they've written her off as a lost cause. "The definition of insanity...."

I've thought for a long time the UN should be moved to someplace like Geneva. Let the Swiss deal with the millions in unpaid parking tickets, not to mention the congestion caused by some diplomat double parking and running into Macy's to do a little shopping.

The UN building has to be some ultra-prime real estate, worth a ton of money. Wouldn't it be funny to see Trump buy it after he completes his second term? <grin>

My dad worked for an oil company and we lived in a company house right between the two leases he took care of. The landowner was always griping b/c he didn't get any of the royalties; they had been separated from the land decades ago and the unmarried and childless woman who had inherited the land and the oil and gas under it had donated the land to the UN and split the royalties between it and an orphanage in New Orleans. The UN put the land up for sale and the family of the griper's wife had bought the several sections where we lived and other ranchers bought the rest.

It's been a long time, but my dad and I sat down one night and figured out how much money both the orphanage and the UN had collected from the royalties and it was a HUGE sum. My dad knew nearly to the barrel and cubic foot of gas what his company had produced and a good idea of what the other leases had produced and it was a 1/8 royalty on several million bbls. of oil and millions and millions of CF of natural gas.

Awesome job Jordan. Thanks Konane.

Thanks Mike. I'd like to see the UN move somewhere in the EU letting them support the whole thing. Let Hillary be the Monarch in the UN as they watch their vision of a one world government vanish.

For whatever it may mean I have not and will not donate anything to any of the UN "charities" or programs.

Thanks Sully. Gutsy and over target as always.
