Lefty Joe kowtows to the UN

President Joe BidenPresident Joe Biden delivered a speech full of nonsense at the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly on September 21, 2021

 

It’s not quite right to say President Biden gave a speech to the United Nations Tuesday. More accurately, he gave a speech for the United Nations.

Biden was in full globalization mode as he said all the things the perfumed popinjays wanted to hear. He never mentioned his predecessor’s name, but didn’t have to. He is not Donald Trump, so the UN now has an accomplice in the White House willing to cut America down to size. 

Biden’s main theme was a promise that the US will be a go-along, get-along partner in shaping a “collective future.” Naturally, he touted as victories his decision to get back into the Paris climate accord and the World Health Organization, and trying to re-create the Iran nuke pact.

Even more thrilling to global big spenders, he ratified their view of American as Uncle Sap — willing to foot much of the bill for the privilege of being abused.

It was mostly a dreary speech, full of platitudes such as “To deliver for our own people, we must also engage deeply with the rest of the world.”

And this one: “Bombs and bullets cannot defend against COVID-19 or its future variants.” 

Imagine writing a line like that — or delivering it? 

But the speech was also dishonest, as when Biden insisted “We’ll stand up for our allies and our friends.”

Try telling that to the people we left behind in Afghanistan to the tender mercies of the Taliban, or to our NATO allies who were cut out of the decision that created the chaotic exit. 

In the real world, Biden’s presidency is taking on water at a rapid rate as it lurches from crisis to crisis, most self-inflicted. So Tuesday must have been a distinct pleasure because he was surrounded by an audience happy with his performance.
