>>According to David Bossie, President of the group 'Citizens United for American Sovereignty based out of Merrifield, Virginia , website:http://www.citizensunited.org/ The Senate Bill (S. 2433) is a piece of legislation in the works that all Americans need to know about...and know now!
This Bill, sponsored by none other than our "President elect" Sen. Barrack Obama, with the backing of Joe Biden on the Foreign&n bsp; Relations Committee, and liberal democrats in Congress, is nothing short of a massive giveaway of American wealth around the world, and a betrayal of the public trust, because, if passed, this bill would give over many aspects of our sovereignty to the United Nations.
The noble sounding name of this bill, "The Global Poverty Act" is actually a Global Tax, payable to the United Nations, that will be required of all American taxpayers.
If passed in the Senate, the House has already passed it, this bill would require the U.S. to increase our foreign aid by $65 BILLION per year, or $845 BILLION over the next 13 years!
That's on top of the billions of dollars in foreign aid that we already pay out! In addition to the economic burdens this potential law would place on our precarious economy, the bill, if passed in the Senate, would also endanger our constitutionally protected rights and freedoms by obligating us to meet certain United Nations mandates.
According to Obama, we should establish these United Nations' goals as benchmarks for U. S. spending.
What are they? The creation of a U.N. International Criminal Court having power to try and convict American citizens and soldiers without any protection from the U.S. Constitution. A standing United Nations Army forcing U.S. soldiers to serve under U.N. command. A Gun Ban on all small arms and light weapons...which would repeal our Second Amendment right to bear arms.
The ratification of the "Kyoto" global warming treaty and numerous other anti-American measures. Recently, the Senate Subcommittee on Foreign Relations (where Sen. Joe Biden sits) approved this plan by a voice vote without any discussion!
Why all the secrecy? If Senators Obama and Biden are so proud of this legislation, then why don't they bring it out into the light of day and let the American people have a look at it instead of hiding it behind closed doors and sneaking it through Congress for late night votes?
It may be only a matter of time before this dangerous legislation reaches a floor vote in the full body of the Senate.
Please write or call, email your representatives, the White House, the media, or anyone you think will listen, and express your opinions regarding this Global Tax giveaway and betrayal of the&nb sp; American people at a time when our nation and our people are already heavily burdened with the threats of our freedom and economic prosperity.
Please send this email to as many folks out there on your networks as you can ASAP! Find out more, just do a search for Senate Bill 2433.

If they revive it, and it passes,(from what I understand) we (US citizens) could essentially become subjects of the UN.. because buried in the bill, it disarms Americans, allows the World Court to usurp our SCOTUS, and does not put a cap on the amount of taxes that the UN can ultimately impose on Americans. (which means, they could then have the authority to impose ‘justice’ of collection as they deem necessary).
Makes you wonder about the reports floating around of the caches of UN equipment in secured locations around the country, doesn’t it?

(not toward your post, but toward the thread — see #15, above)
iy's also a violation of the constitution which Obama made an oath to protect, but we all know he had no intention of honoring that vow when he said it. Which is grounds for impeachment.
It’s time to get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US.
We have propped up the world for long enough, and we’re still reviled around the globe. Fine. Let ‘em have at it, without us for awhile.
