    hard to say.. if each topic can be covered diligently as is . cool..
    The eastern world, it is exploding, violence flaring bullets loading. you are old enough to kill , but not for voting, this whole crazy world is just to frustrating, and you tell me over and over and over again my friend, you don't believe we are on the EVE of DESTRUCTION.


    Never approach a bull from the front, A horse from behind, or a fool from any direction.

    Here's an item on "Rights of the Child"

    Spread of 'baby boxes' in Europe alarms United Nations


    The United Nations is increasingly concerned at the spread in Europe of "baby boxes" where infants can be secretly abandoned by parents, warning that the practice "contravenes the right of the child to be known and cared for by his or her parents", the Guardian has learned.
    The UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, which reports on how well governments respect and protect children's human rights, is alarmed at the prevalence of the hatches – usually outside a hospital – which allow unwanted newborns to be left in boxes with an alarm or bell to summon a carer.
    These baby boxes were designed to save the life of babies who would otherwise be abandoned who-knows-where.
    The UN in it's infinite backwards wisdom is trying to undo what is ultimately best for these babies - to be placed in safety.

    Idiots~

    The UN does serve a purpose, the problem is that too many have too high of hopes for it.

    Of the five proposed treaties, LOST is the only one that I think the US should sign.

It would actually have benefited the US had we signed it a long time ago.

    The LOST would open up more areas for the US to drill in and would give the US more rights in the Arctic. But with Obama as president I guess none of that matters.

    Hillary is putting the final touches on the small arms treaty and we have to stop it before it's final.

    Here's how they get around ratifying it....

    Treaties the sec/state signs off on are binding until such time that the Senate takes a vote and rejects them. Reid will not bring the vote up. SO, it will be binding until a Republican dominated Senate votes it down. By then the mechanisms will be in place and it will be virtually impossible to defy it. It supersedes our Constitution and Bill of Rights.

    PLEASE contact your Senator and Congressman about this dangerous UN treaty.

    Clause 2: He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur;

    US Const.

    Treaties are not binding unless the Senate actually votes. If they ignore it, it is not US law.
