Both men carried out their orders – but neither had authority to commit the United States to the terms of these documents. That's the job of the U.S. Senate, where two-thirds must give "Advice and Consent" (Art. II, Sec. 2, U.S. Constitution). Then the president ratifies, and the United States is committed – not before!

In this case even ratification by 2/3 of the US Senate could not obligate the US to this garbage. According the the Constitution, all tax and spending bills must originate in the House.

U.S. Ambassador John Negroponte signed the Monterrey Consensus for global taxes on March 22, 2002, for President George W. Bush,

What??????

President Bush, if he values his popularity, had better get busy and "unsign" these two ridiculous documents - both of which undermine our sovereignty and freedoms

You better do it Mr. President, if you want my vote in 2004.
