Interesting how the socialists in the State Dept. and Senate are so quick to try and ram these through while the nation is distracted by a disaster....

Isn't President Bush in favor of this treaty?

Everyone needs to contact their congress critters to let them know how bitterly opposed to this thing we are. In light of the recent betrayal by the Supreme Court, George Bush, and our "Congressional leaders", it's impossible to trust any of them. They are slowly selling us down the river!

This tax would still cause us to pay most of the UN's livelihood. I say livelihood because for my part at least 80% of the world population lives on the US one way or another. Maybe some of the burden might shift slightly, but we would still be a stupid nation to agree with any tax of any form for the UN. Screw them. Kick them out.

And, just as the United States must oppose global taxes and world-government-advancing programs at the UN this fall, it should do as Ronald Reagan did in 1982 - namely, reject the Law of the Sea Treaty.

Amen to that. I recall Senator Jeff Sessions saying that if he had anything to do with it, the LOST would never see the light of day. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a man like Ronald Reagan in the WH to back him up.

Our Navy goes where it pleases already. LOST will not improve on that. My opposition to LOST will be added to the letter I am sending to my congress critters.

Thank you for posting this. This is an issue being flown under the radar of the American People for obvious reasons. They would reject it.

One of the main advocates for world government is President Bush. His father, Gush the Elder was shouting for a "New World Order" years ago.

The key is the United Nations through which the world goverment will be administered. Get ready.

Can anyone post a picture of Senator Lugar? He is the RINO poster boy with that stupid grin he wears on his face.

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.

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."

Jeepers, this is so OBVIOUS.

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!

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!
