Looks like we merely ratified a piece of LOST related to “straddling fish stocks” (which I assume means fish stocks shared by two or more adjoining countries) and highly migratory fish stocks. I suppose we could have simply pursued treaties with countries that we share a body of water with instead, but that’s simply too much to ask of our towering intellectual giants.

Indeed. They should banish Madeline McCann and that lost flying millionaire to Greta’s show on Fox.

Any future President can be tried once the treat is signed! Giving away American sovereignty, Liberty and Independence seems to be a determination of this Quisling President.

What is Fred Thompson’s position on the LOST treaty? I can’t find anything on search, but he must have voted at some point.

Trusting the UN with anything is like asking a child molester to babysit!

Someone pointed out 20 years ago or so, that many of the heads of governments and states whose ambassadors voted their wishes in the General Assembly were former (or not former) terrorists who rose from grenade-throwing and throat-slashing to "statesmanship" by shedding blood generously.

Overall, the U.N. has the moral tone of a bunch of carjackers surrounding a carload of university dons.

The last thread about this got about 8 posts.

I know but I have to try. I have to keep pushing.

Hmmm, up to 209 posts now and still going. Looks like you've done good, stranger.

Oh, btw, I'd give five dollars to know why President Bush is pushing this -- whom he feels he owes, to "make this happen."

Gotta be the Bonesmen and party bagmen pulling strings. Can't think of anyone in Texas who'd want this dungpile. It's got to be plutocratically rich Connecticut Yankees and New York investment bankers -- and their superinsulated, superuninhibited clients.

Hi, stand. Maybe some of the Dixie posters would like to see this? Sovereignty issues are our middle name!

while i see no reason to be VULGAR (especially since ladies & impressionable children read these threads) the USA should LEAVE the UN & the UN should be invited to LEAVE the USA.

The un wants to be monetarily independent from the US and the rest of the world.

In 1947 there was debate about whether the UN should be a forum or the World Government.

With all the impingements on national soverignty, from within and without, and epecially recently from the highest levels, I can only say that those who have renamed themselves 'Globalists' are making progress.

In a generation or two, if we do not decisively act in this one, their subterfuge and patience will pay off with the world government they and their philosophical progenitors have desired.

What they do not forsee, apparently, is that that much power will rapidly corrupt the entity, and especially rich, white socialist liberals will rapidly become the grist for the mill they have made.

The class warfare and racism they and others have fomented will not stop to poll its victims on their politics.

There is a dark age coming if we do not stop it, one which will set any semblance of civilization back millennia despite the trimmings of technology which survive it.

Thank you for the alert. You've got to watch these people, watch them all the time. Time to again e-mail our senatorial RINOs and weak hearts.

And it's another warning for conservatives studying the 2008 presidential campaign to be careful to look beyond hype and image and look for real convictions.

We, the US, will have but one vote in any dispute created by unclos. One vote.

As long as that one vote consists of 95,000 tons of absolute sincerity, I'm OK with that.

That's one question everyone wants to know. Why on earth would he do such a foolish thing. It defies logic.

Yes it is. Here's what Frank Gaffney had to say about L.O.S.T.

Frank Gaffney, the former Reagan defense official who now heads the Center for Security Policy in Washington, tells Newsmax that treaty advocates don't realize what UNCLOS really entails.

“I doubt any of these new supporters has actually read the entire treaty," he says. "If they read this Marxist document, the issue would be dead.”

Gaffney says he will fight against UNCLOS ratification and has created www.rejectlost.org to get the word out.
