The UN Let's the Insane Run the Asylum

Imagine letting the nuts run the insane asylum, imagine letting the terminally lazy and stupid children run the school or imagine letting bank robbers manage the bank. That's what the Useless Nitwits are doing when they decided to let Zimbabwe head the U.N. Commission on Sustainable Development.

Zimbabwe won approval last night to head a key United Nations body charged with promoting economic progress and environmental protection despite protests from the U.S., European nations and human rights organizations.

The approval was voted 26-21 with three abstentions by the 53-member U.N. Commission on Sustainable Development despite the fact that the government of President Robert Mugabe presides over one of the world's worst-performing economies.

Despite the fact that the thug Mugabe took the once prosperous country of Zimbabwe and turned into a welfare nation. Despite him turning a country that was the "breadbasket of Africa" and turning it into a empty burger box of Africa, the UN voted to have them head up the Commission on Sustainable Development.

Let's see Zimbabwe's numbers on Sustainable Development:

...the once-prosperous Zimbabwean economy has all but collapsed under Mr. Mugabe, who has been in power for more than a quarter-century.

Zimbabwe has the world's highest inflation rate at over 2,200 percent. Unemployment is estimated at between 80 and 90 percent, and severe food shortages are common in a country once considered southern Africa's breadbasket.

Just this week, Harare announced daily power cuts of up to 20 hours for households across the country, to give struggling farmers enough electricity to run irrigation systems.

Wow, those are some impressive credentials Mugabe has racked up there. Yep, his country is perfect to head up the Commission, if you live in the wacky world of UN that is.
