I have a floppy disk with a copy of UN Disarmament Act on it, but no longer have puter with a floppy drive. I’ll try to get that transferred somehow, and get it up...I’ve had it since 1999, it was given to me by FR Mouth of the South, and she passed away several years ago.

It seems that many of our modern-day politicians want to give up our sovereignty under the guise of promoting globalization. The concept of high-treason has all but vanished from their convictions.

Scary that it’s been lurking since the 60’s, isn’t it?

This stuff gets passed while we sleep, so much apathy in America.

You got it, and the Dems think it is their right to give away all freedoms in the name of globalization..its absurd.

I have not heard or read anything about S.2433 before tonight. I did several searches on it tonight and came up with the following:

from Townhall.com (2/25/08):
Congress Contemplates Giving Cash to Foreigners

from Accuracy In Media (2/12/08):
Obama’s Global Tax Proposal Up for Senate Vote

and from the Heritage Foundation (4/1/08):
The Global Poverty Act: The Wrong Track for U.S. Aid Policy

It's late and I'm kind of tired so please excuse me but it appears that (if nothing else) we should be outraged over the fact that it "would require U.S. taxpayers to fund foreign aid at more than quadruple current levels, at an amount of $100 billion per year." (according to the American Heritage Foundation).

That doesn't just sound like a “Boy who Cried Wolf” report to me.

It was a boy who cried wolf on guns and “global tax.” It IS a bad spending bill and should be opposed on those grounds.

OK, thanks Darren. I’m surprised O’Reilly, Limbaugh, Hannity & Boortz haven’t given this bill more attention.

How right they were, and I hope we will act accordingly to see that our rights are not squashed by the dems. Thank you for those quotes.
