I am always encouraged when a member of the Clinton administration criticizes the Bush administration. He must be doing the right thing!

Another nail in the multilateral coffin. Conservatives won the election at home, why would they hand back control to foreign leftists.

Some of the people here are ever the eternal optimists, but after years of this I am sick and tired of watching someone say, "Thank heaven for this." What do you folks mean thank heavens for this?
Bush was supposed to have rescinded our signature to join the International Court of Justice. None the less our Supreme Court justices seem predilected to adopt Europe's laws as if our own. And now the hens are coming home to roost. Bah humbug!!!
Here we have a directive from a periferal entity that we signed onto. And what, now we are going to withdraw from that entity. How could we? We were told we were not a member.
There is some question in my mind if this is the International Criminal Court that we're talking about here, only by another name. If it is not, then the same principles should apply. Why are we toying around with an international institution that seeks to supercede our own self-determination.
Folks, if we didn't want self-determination, what the hell did our founding fathers fight to provide for us, and what do ou members of the military fight to preserve for us, if not for that one principle?
My level of contempt for our government officials grows daily.
Whether it's the Congress, the Executive Branch, or now even the Supreme Court, the levels of skullduggery and the continuing shell game, are wearing this citizen's patience very thin.

Excellent precedent, President Bush! We command ourselves better than the world can hope to handle itself.
A great move.

The withdrawal followed a Feb. 28 memorandum from President Bush to Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales directing state courts to abide by the decision of the tribunal, the International Court of Justice in The Hague.

"Peter J. Spiro, a law professor at the University of Georgia, said the withdrawal was unbecoming."
Peter J. Spiro: "Far from proving the triumph of sovereigntism, the war on terrorism is demonstrating that, along with the rest of the international community, the United States will have to bend to international norms -- sooner or later." ... July 28, 2004
Mr. Spiro Esq. is a globalist not an American.
Harold Hongju Koh: "International adjudication is an important tool in a post-cold-war, post-9/11 world"
" On the day after the attack, George Bush could have flown to New York to stand in solidarity with the world's ambassadors in front of the United Nations. " Oct 30th 2003
Harold Hongju Koh is another one worlder.
These are the minds that would have been running this country had the enemy Democrat Party won the election.
