Show of hands. Who here thinks giving the UN veto power over US sovereignty is a swell idea? OK Frank Lautenberg, you can sit down now. You too Bob Menendez.
After getting back from the shore this weekend, marching in the Memorial Day parade, and enjoying some lovely barbecues with friends, I open my web browser and see the Democrats are trying to sell us out to the United Nations. Again.
A real stinker of a global conspiracy called LOST has been banging around in the US Senate since Ronald Reagan's time. LOST stands for Law Of The Sea Treaty and it's a globalist's wet dream.
Here's what the globalists are trying to do:
- Take away the right of Congress or the president to go to war unless the United Nations approves (that is unless we get Russia and China not to veto the resolutions.
- Hold American presidents and cabinet members criminally responsible for going to war without UN approval.
- Limit the right of the US Navy to keep the seas open.
- Require half of the royalties from offshore oil and gas drilling and mineral mining to go to a UN body to distribute as it wishes with no real control by the United States.
- Require us to share our offshore drilling technology with all other nations.
- Require us to assure, through registration and other intrusive methods, that none of the gun owners in America export their weapons to other countries.
- Establish international jurisdiction over firearms in the United States.
Barry and his minions have been working overtime to get this nonsense passed in the Senate. The Republicans have threatened to turn it into an election issue. Because US sovereignty isn't something we should be messing around with.
Unless you're a haughty, French-inspired, former Democratic Party presidential candidate.
Mr. Kerry said he hoped to avoid ensnaring the treaty, which is opposed by some conservatives, in the presidential election campaign.
"I do not want this treaty to become victim to that race or the politics of the moment," Sen. [John] Kerry [D-MA] said. "We will wait until the passions of the election have subsided before we vote."
Obama administration officials want ratification this year, but said a vote could be held in the lame-duck period following the election.
Ram it through when we're busy celebrating Romney's victory, and planning for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Just like Obamacare, only with far more sinister repercussions.
This treasonous twaddle is what passes for enlightened thinking in the salons of New York Times readers. Give Cuba veto power over our maritime pursuits. Send us hat in hand to China just to beg permission to drill for oil. Because when Obama can deflect his lapdog media away from his own failings, they'll blame high gas prices on American greed.
And I'll bet Somali pirates would just love to tell the US Navy where we can, and more importantly can't deploy our ships.
Filibuster this foolishness. Diplokooks at the Useless Nations have no business dictating to the United States of America. I hope that Mitt Romney makes LOST into an election issue. Because otherwise Stephen Decatur, John Paul Jones, Chester Nimitz, and countless other American naval heroes will have died in vain. That's not what Memorial Day is about, and shame on the Democrats for believing otherwise.
