You are not making sense, Gene.  A racist in Missouri has a right to free 
speech; a Constitutional right.  That doesn't mean that Kit Bond should take 
hime to the Senate, or even a smaller public forum to spread garbage.  
Besides, technically, the U.D. is international property.  The Constitution 
only applies to Foreigners if they are on U.S. property (and there is debate 
whether that should even be the case).  
 
I have no problem with racists doing a blog, putting out their own website, 
even being the president of a ticky-tacky country that is led by primitive 
thinking anti-semites.I do wonder why an organization , of which we are 
billed the majority of tyhe costs, enjoys "promoting" such foulness.
 
Allowance (rights) vs. promotion; see.    :)  ...bobford

No, Bob, I am unaware of the constitutional mandate against people  
giving a speech in the UN unless it meets certain guidelines. Please  
point out to me where I can read that.
