When's the vote...4 or 5 weeks?

[EagleUSA]

The U.N. is out of control. THEIR LUST FOR ONE-WORLD POWER is worse than dangerous. It will take the US to stand up to their totalitarian tyranny. We must do it.

As I read this article something suddenly dawned on me. Treaties, such as LOST, when passed by the legislature are endowed with Constitutional force more or less. Liberals/leftists have hemmed and hawed and raised cane about the possibility of amending the US Constitution to define marriage and outlaw so-called gay marriage but never raise of peep when it comes to treaty ratification. Of course,if I give them the benefit of the doubt then one might say that they are just ignorant.

[Coleus]

Don't know. There are a number of UN Treaties congress can vote on during each term: LOST, CAFTA, FTAA, etc.

Each year congressmen and senators put up the bills some never make it out of committee. It seems that each year there are more and more congressmen co-sponsoring these bills.

This anachronism should be rejected. There is no proper time for this, nor for its sister Treaty--the 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty.

Kyoto is a no-go, yet they're considering this $#@#@$@?!?!?!?!?!?! What is WRONG with these people!?!?!?!?!

[SuzyQue]

Lugar I believe. Condi and Bush both support it's signing.

She spoke on it at her confirmation hearing.

[Still Thinking]

U.S. resistance to joining this new collective regime is being portrayed as contempt for "the world community" and disrespect for "the rule of law."

I don't see how US authorities can be accused of disrespect for the "rule of law" if they try to keep bad policy from becoming law in the first place, especially if the law in question would conflict with the ultimate legal authority they have SWORN to uphold. As far as "contempt for the world community" I don't take it as a given that that's a bad thing. Some elements of the world community are without a doubt worthy of contempt.

[SuzyQue]

Thanks. What the heck is wrong with them?

Go to search and type in...'big media won't touch agenda 21'

Every question you have will be answered in that thread. L.O.S.T. and Agenda 21 are at the core of the U.N. It's their babies.

None of us can figure out why they support it. At first Bush was against it, but not now.

[lizma]

You're right. This is unbelievable. It's "how can we draw income from anyone who is hardworking and intuitive while we sit on our butts".

If they are going to profit from these people are they going to reimburse them at least partially for their time and expenses. NO.

If it was up to the UN they would be taxing our salaries (and of coarse Israel's). The UN is the boogey man in the closet
