Well, the subject was kind of smart alecky, so it's not like I brought some masterful debate down to a new level.
On a more argumentative level, I support the US walking out of this panel (not the UN, just this part). We don't have unlimited resources, a fact that nobody ever seems to remember. The fact that this Human Rights Commission is, by far, the most deplorable sham in the UN means that it should get the least attention from us. After we've, I don't know, got the Middle East wrapped up, done a little something with North Korea, fixed our economy, and re-established good ties with the other members of the Security Council (the only part that really matters), then by all means, we should do our damnedest to shape up the world's human rights condition from the UN on down. And I actually don't mean that as a joke.
