Obama apologizing and bowing to the world on behalf of America, and it's so-called sins, is beyond sickening. Now the appeaser-in-chief is apologizing to the U.N.'s Human Rights Counsel were real violators of human rights, such as Iran, sit. Typical liberal guilt. Human Events <http://townhall.com/news/politics-elections/2010/08/23/us_admits_human_rights_shortcomings_in_un_report> reports: *The Obama administration has told the United Nations that America's human rights record is less than perfect but stressed that the U.S. political system has built-in safeguards that promote improvements.* In its first-ever report to the U.N. Human Rights Council on conditions in the United States, *the State Department said Monday that some Americans, notably minorities, are still victims of discrimination.* Despite success in reforming such inequities as slavery and the denial of women's right to vote, the department said, considerable progress is still needed. "Although we have made great strides, work remains to meet our goal of ensuring equality before the law for all," it said. The report noted that although the U.S. now has an African-American president and that women and Hispanics have won greater social and economic success, large segments of American society suffer from unfair policies and practices. *High unemployment rates, hate crime, poverty, poor housing, lack of access to health care and discriminatory hiring practices are among the challenges the report identified as affecting blacks, Latinos, Muslims, South Asians, Native Americans and gays and lesbians in the United States.* Notice, none of these problems affect White people? Whites don't experience high unemployment, hate crimes, poverty or lack of access to health care. Only minorities are affected by these problems. Typical liberal spin. This is what happens when people vote for, and are governed by liberal politicians. To paraphrase Charles Barkley "Poor people have voted for Democrats for 50 years and they're still poor." The report, which drew on meetings that U.S. officials held with various groups around the country since January, also cited concerns from civil rights activists and citizens related to immigration and racial profiling by law enforcement agencies. The 29-page report was submitted to the Human Rights Council on Friday but was not published until Monday. Members of the council, which the United States joined only last year, are required to submit reviews of their rights records. The report was the first "Universal Periodic Review" produced by the U.S. Add a comment to this post<http://scottystarnes.wordpress.com/2010/08/24/obama-apologizes-to-the-u-n-for-human-rights-shortcomings/#respond> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gocomments/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godelicious/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gofacebook/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gotwitter/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/gostumble/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/godigg/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> <http://feeds.wordpress.com/1.0/goreddit/scottystarnes.wordpress.com/9135/> [image: WordPress] WordPress.com <http://wordpress.com/> | Thanks for flying with WordPress!
