The United Nations continues to impress

Amid one of the most flagrant affronts to civil rights in the last decade, Russia and China have once again affirmed their commitment to mass-murdering dictators by refusing to support a UN Security Council resolution calling for Syria's President Assad to step down.  Of course we all know that the United States must be the culprit behind it all.  After all, it's not like we're not the most evil nation in history, so there must be something going on.  Still, it does show that once again, the UN fails to deliver on the least of its obligations.
