I’m buying this carp. Yep the U.N. will entice until it has the signators it wants. Then it will be free to rewrite the orginal laws by less than majority vote.

The ratification of the International Criminal Court is an excellent example. It was ratified by something like 33% of world nations signing on board. Even then it didn’t require passage by any legislatures. It was okay for the top politico in any nation to sign on, without ratification inside the nation.

Bush waited eighteen months before objecting to the ICC, and after many of our friends had already signed. Some leader. Now he’s ready make us not only subservient to a world body for laws, he’s also willing to give up rights to what we do or don’t do on the high seas. He’s already made it pefectly clear he wants our nation subservient to others on issues of security and trade.

Bush has more than lived down to everything I expected of him in 2000 when I refused to vote for him. Jimmy Carter, look out. There’s a new dufus on the block.

I think the Bushes finally joined the elite one world government club at the UN.
There was a time the Bushes wouldn’t even let Maurice Strong
in the door, but suddenly that changed a couple years ago.

The ICC is a good example of how difficult it is for the US to sign individual side agreements in place of a collective treaty.
