Agreed. Will this one do? (It comes right from Wikipedia's RINO discussion!)
Have long, with Pres Reagan and others, seen this as an insideous, traitorous, horrid, destructive treaty.
Lord, God, please--hold this back as long as possible. Bring to naught all efforts toward it. Neutralize in fiercely effective ways all who support it, in Jesus' Name.
Bush seams to be in favor of anything that weakens sovereignty while at the same time claiming to be for strong security.
LOST PING

Bolton is causing havoc at the UN by fighting AGAINST what the UN is trying to sneak through. It even says so in the posted article. That's why Bolton was appointed by President Bush.
"This sovereignty-sapping agenda is at the heart of a dispute now playing out in Turtle Bay, where U.S. Permanent Representative John Bolton is RESISTING an initiative pushed by governments and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) who are hostile to the United States and/or champions of a supranational government. Amb. Bolton is being savaged by the latter for wisely seeking over 500 changes to a draft Outcome Document envisioned for signature by heads of state and government at a High-Level Plenary Meeting of the UN General Assembly next month."
Well said!
You know, that prayer sounds like you've surrendered to it already.
It hasn't been confirmed, and with the proper pressure in the right places, it never will be.
Cheers!
A CHRONOLOGICAL HISTORY OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER

a package of 34 treaties, all of which were ratified by a show of hands -- no recorded vote.

Annan in historic meeting with Supreme Court &Congress/is believed to be unprecedented.
http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3b0c30a81760.htm
Now we know why the RATS didn't want Bolton in the UN.
The acronym for this treaty is LOST.
Just like we should rename
"Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS)"
to
"Supreme Court, Rulers of the United Metrosexual States (SCROTUMS)"
Cheers!
Why would Bush appoint Bolton then if he was so for this treaty and the UN? Your statement doesnt jive with whats going on.
What kills me is the rah-rah support for John Bolton by conservatives. We don't need a UN ambassador at all, because we never should have a member of the UN in the first place. The solution to the UN problem is to for the US to get out of the UN and kick it out of the US!
I'm not giving up either...but I can understand his frustration...we are fighting the entire system, for all practical purposes, because we already lost the high ground, the White House.
The President himself has thrown in with these characters. The treaty can't be presented unless he tenders it. He is backing it the whole way.
And frankly when we are on our knees praying....and 'looking to the hills for our help'...that is when we are truly in fighting form...and at our most effective.
Who can stand against HIM?
