" The secretary of state would have to certify that 32 of the 39 reforms have been met by September 2007, and all 39 by the next year, to avoid a withdrawal of 50 percent of assessed dues"

That sounds pretty level headed, measured and responsible. I’m sure the partisan media will have nothing bad to say about it. [snicker]

A couple of points:

The House of Representatives holds the purse strings. Whether the Senate or the Administration likes it or not, not one penny can be appropriated for the UN that doesn't pass the House.


Unfortunately, the House doesn't have a say in another pressing matter that is dangerously looming: the world socialist UN wetdream called 'the Law of the Sea Treaty' or 'LOST'.

Killed by the Reagan administration, it is back in spades, and is supported by the President and key Senators. Because it is a treaty, the House has no say in it at all.

For the first time, the UN will have taxing authority under this awful treaty, as well as giving that collection of Third World Arabist thugs virtual control over about 70% of the surface of the planet, as well as its airspace and seabeds.

Republicans better wake up fast to this threat and apply maximum pressure to stop it.
