This is NOT just scare-tactics. Internat'l treaties are already being used to attack the death penalty in this country. Treaties are a very high form of law. parsy.

Lunacy compounded on top of lunacy celebrated. The war against reality is alive and well on the Left.

Of course, Senator Joseph Biden is one vicious little Internationalist who has carried water for the Socialist Egalitarian World Order crowd for many years. There is nothing new in his trying to market this attack upon the basics of human sexuality. (See The Feminist Absurdity, for an analysis of the thought processes behind this sort of thing.)

America needs to make it very clear, once and for all, that we will run our own Societies, without advice or permission from international bodies. Anyone who has a problem with that needs to be treated like a modern day Benedict Arnold.

Bump and get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US.

The whole world will be much better off.

You have got to be $h*tting me we are supposed to change OUR laws? Last time I checked we were our own country (kinda ). When is the common man that sits it front of the TV and watch wrestling (the dumbing of America) going to get up and realize his country is being converted into a utopian society? ie.. The world court,ICC,UN,WTO. Where PC rules the land and common sense, rational thought and lets not forget cause and consequence are tossed out and replaced with ZERO tolerance and PC rhetoric. That just my thoughts.

Another expert pointed out "that Denmark's Constitution contained no specific provision on discrimination against women

And neither does the US Constitution, other than with respect to voting. It looks like ratification would open the door to all sorts of mischief. Women in combat, maternity leave for men, as a matter of law rather than something to be decided by individual employers. removal of such special protections that still exist for women in the workplace, the possibilities are endless, and frightening.

Thanks for the ping, madfly.

In a June 18 article, New York Times columnist Nicholas D. Kristof repeated this point, stating that "frankly, the treaty has almost nothing to do with American women, who already enjoy the rights the treaty supports…Instead, it has everything to do with the half of the globe where to be female is to be persecuted until, often, death."

 

 

RAWA.org is one group showing just how far behind civilization some societies are, especially the 'peaceful' Muslims.

Any career politician would have been a total fool to oppose it, alienating half the voters in his coming bid for re-election.

You assume that 100% of the women in this country would be in favor of this piece of socialist, feminist garbage. Anyone with a vestige of brain in their heads would oppose it if they read it and understood the implications. This is a dangerous piece of legislation for the family.

Write the president, your senators & congressmen and ask them to oppose it!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't our constitution automatically supercede any treaties that we sign, and even if these treaties become "law of the land", don't our own laws automatically supercede them anyway, in regards to enforcement?

No, certainly not in the case of this piece of... . (I didn't say the two situations are identical.)
