This act which just passed through the Senate Foreign Relations Committee yesterday would commit the next president of the United States -- oh, my gosh, that may be Obama, what a coincidence. It would commit him to working towards the worldwide poverty goals set by the United Nations millennium declaration.
These goals may cost America an estimated $845 billion, while making us subservient to a whole array of U.N. treaties and resolutions like the Kyoto Protocol.
CLIFF KINCAID, ACCURACY IN MEDIA: That`s right. I found out about it a couple of days ago when it was really secretly put on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee agenda. It was sprung on the House last September, brought up for a voice vote. It passed.
KINCAID: And the Bush administration agreed to it. The Barack Obama bill basically, without mentioning the .7 percent, or the necessity of a global tax, commits the United States to carrying out this objective, meeting its own "millennium goal." And...
KINCAID: Right. This commits us to spend the money as dictated by the U.N., .7 percent, according to Jeffrey Sachs, who ran the U.N. Millennium Project. It means the United States has been short by $65 billion a year on what is called official development assistance.
BECK: OK. But it also -- it also puts us in line for Kyoto, it also puts us in line for what is also part of this U.N., you know, millennium agreement, of banning all small arms.
Plus, they have a so-called millennium declaration. That actually came out in 2000, which not only commits us to the more foreign aid spending, but calls on countries to implement Kyoto, a ban on small weapons, the children`s rights treaty, the women`s rights treaty. .

Ok- i’ve been out of the loop on this- WTH is going on here? This is the legal grounds for utterly underming our sovereignty- among other things...
I need to go learn more.
Gotta love these backroom deals. There is a watered down version of Shamnesty being rammed through as we speak too. Haven’t seen a thread on it though. If Congress can get that done none of the three sock puppets will have to deal with Shamnesty in the election.
Actually we are already enveloped by socialism. We are now just deciding how much. In short, we're screwed.
Huh?!?! WHAT is going on here?
We could be heading for some very bad times.
I started to read some of the comments left by readers about this legislation- they’re all in favor of it. I’m speechless.
http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_1302.html
H.R. 1302 would require the President to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the United States foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the United Nations Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people worldwide, between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day.
Its time to stop paying the Federal Income tax. Its time to resist.
No worries. I thought it was great.
Thanks. That was my flying off the handle rant of the day when I wrote that. One of those days when enough was finally enough and had to rant.
Under the radar and already through the House.
They’d better read UN Mill. 2000 re: 55/2 on ‘illicit small arms and weapons’ and check the definition. They’re not stopping there... trust me.
Past due time for a Potomac Tea Party...
“I’ve known Hagel to be a globalist but not Lugar... I am not even going to think of it has elites vs. US but more of an UnConstitutional, non sovereignty group of dopes vs. US.
Remember Lugar has been the force behind the sovereignty sapping LOST treaty and Bush wants to sign it.
Thanks for your kind words in your last.
As for your homepage . . . and enough being enough . . .
I’ve only experienced that
very very rarely . . . only
several thousand times hereon at a minimum . . . . . LOL.
I just rarely agree with much of anyone very fully . . . expecially that many paragraphs worth! LOL.
But I kept feeling—RIGHT ON! AMEN! when reading your home page.
Thanks for feeling like at least SOMEONE else is awake!
God be with you and your loved ones this month, spring, year . . . in provision, safety, intimacy, guidance . . . .
We could be heading for some very bad times.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I beg to hear one good reason to believe otherwise.
Thank you. Stay safe.
I wish I would’ve known Lugar’s name sooner.

Exhibit “A” in why all Republicans in open primaries must get to the polls, hold their noses, and vote for Hillary Rodham Clinton on March 4th.
Hillary will push the same thing.It passes from President to President, no matter which party.
Strange Bush turned into such a RINO,huh?
They have been selling us down the river as slaves for decades.”
That’s because they are “citizens of the world” before they are Americans.
