Bad Idea

H Res 1510 was introduced by Representative Gohmert of Texas (R-TX) to consider prohibit U.S. assistance to foreign countries that oppose the position of the United States in the United Nations.  This appears to be a misguided and ill-informed resolution for an election year.  The resolution was referred to the Rules Committee (where it will hopefully die).  Cong. Rec. H5546 (July 13, 2010). 

Hat tip to the ABA Governmental Affairs Office.
