At least Utah has the balls to start bringing a case against this illegal control of land use by FedGov. It is a violation of the equal footing doctrine, it degrades State standing in a Federal republic, it dilutes Senatorial representation.

It's long past time for the States to tell them "No dice; we're taking it back."

I’ll believe that they are serious when they start locking the doors and posting guards on unconstitutional Federal offices, or arresting Federal bureaucrats on State lands.

Dog and pony show.

Poor countries show up with an empty briefcase hoping to go home with stacks of Franklins that we earned and were forced to give away.

They go home with an empty briefcase.

. . . . Agenda 21.

Since 2000 about 95 percent of U.N. member states that receive U.S. assistance have voted against the United States most of the time in the U.N. General Assembly on non-consensus votes…..

Check out article, comments, and graphics.

Thanks, MamaDearest.
