They have been trying to do this for the last 20 yrs .. getting some goofy treaty to limit our rights. It goes nowhere, ever.
If it actually ever comes to the US Senate only a senator who wishes non-reelection would vote for it. Its a 100% political death run to vote for it. I would guess 98-2 against
Apparently you are still under the impression that our "votes" count for something... and that may be true in
some cases, but
only when the votes happen to coincide with what "They" want. Yes, it's the amorphous "They" again. They, for the most-part, are very careful to maintain anonymity and remain behind the curtain (with The Great and Powerful Oz). However, recently (since November 2008)
some have become emboldened enough to hint at their presence and purpose. Among the power brokers we find George Soros (Soros, was a Hungarian immigrant, who enjoyed and took full advantage of the things our country had to offer [and now
despises it], "is the founder and chairman of a network of foundations that promote, among other things, the creation of open, democratic societies based upon the rule of law, market economies, transparent and accountable governance, freedom of the press, and respect for human rights" - as
he sees those things), and a virulent proponent of Draconian anti-gun laws. Then there's Michael Bloomberg (current left-wing mayor of NYC, and rabid anti-2A activist), who is a self-made billionaire who has obviously forgotten which social construct enabled him to become a billionaire, and Barack Hussein Obama, whose leadership experience is non-existent, whose birthplace and educational background is murky at best, and whose mentors, heroes and cabinet members are all leftist/Marxist/Communist activists and revolutionaries. Soros had pretty-much remained low-key prior to November 2008, Bloomberg has been "outed" since his election as mayor of NYC in 2003. And Obama? He covered himself in a cloak of altruism in 2008, ran a campaign financed by God only knows who, and then turned his back on all things
true Americans believe in when he was elected. Bigger government facilitates the "Nanny State", where the indolent "grasshoppers" are sustained by the hard-working "ants". Borrowing the country into what is essentially a financial 'black hole', with
promises of recovery, helps to insure the willing cooperation of the sheeple majority. A world tour spent apologizing for our successes, demeans and weakens us in the eyes of "the global community". Don't misunderstand though... Obama is
anything but ineffective. He is
highly effective in furthering
his goals, even though they run counter to the best interests of the citizens of the United States of America.
But,
regardless of which political party controls the House, Senate and the Oval Office, the function of government is always
control of the masses by the elitists. There are probably thousands of "conspiracy theories" floating around the internet, and each
may contain a
particle (at the
atomic level) of truth. It is the process of picking and choosing the
correct particles of truth in order to properly complete the puzzle (and form the "Big Picture"), that is problematical. Those who would destroy our Republic, have a unique opportunity to do so during the Obama administration. As far as committing political suicide by voting to accept the UN SATT goes, those who are "true believers" don't really care. They are certain "the machine" will reelect/appoint them. Just my thoughts.
Pax...
