UN refuses to hear application for Gay groups admission to Economic and Social Council

The US joined Iran and Zimbabwe in refusing to hear the applications at all. Not a surprise I suppose considering Bush's neo-con Bolton is the ambassador and anti-minority Condi as state department head.

The US claims one of the groups had ties to pedophiles. The ILGA group severed ties with the 'north american man boy love association' in 1994 which is some time ago. The Danish group had no such ties. Why not just call all gays pedophiles and leave it at that? This seems to be what the US state department wants to imply.

If the US government is so imprecise in it's messaging, I would think it appropriate to just go ahead and call all people the Bush adminstration doesn't like -- such as Muslims, Jews, African-Americans, Chinese, hispanics, poor people, and gays -- pedophiles and be done with it.
