ORIGINAL: popeye1250 Oh yeah, just what we need, another *lawyer* in the White House! Obama met with M. Stanly Dukakis and John "French" Kerry in Boston on his birthday. Not a good omen meeting with those two losers of the socialist stripe. Gee, Obama hasn't said much of late about "Genocides in Africa" has he? Democrats keep fielding Leftists and then act "surprised" when they lose. Is Obama going to be speaking French like John "Irish" Kerry on the campaign trail? I bet Obama supports the "U.N." too! Owner, I thought you were a big Hillary fan? What happened to make you change your mind and start singing Obama's praises just weeks after you were bad-mouthing him? What if the Democrats ran David Duke, would you support him? Funny, we haven't heard much lately about what a, "brilliant legal scholor" Obama allegedly is. Of course divorce lawyers are, "brilliant legal scholors" too, aren't they? Why would he change any of that now? Oh and for his support of the UN, it is more like handing over control to them... quote:
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=56405 "With billions of people living on just dollars a day around the world, global poverty remains one of the greatest challenges and tragedies the international community faces," Obama said. "It must be a priority of American foreign policy to commit to eliminating extreme poverty and ensuring every child has food, shelter, and clean drinking water. As we strive to rebuild America's standing in the world, this important bill will demonstrate our promise and commitment to those in the developing world. "Our commitment to the global economy must extend beyond trade agreements that are more about increasing profits than about helping workers and small farmers everywhere," he continued. The bill institutes the United Nations Millennium Summit goals as the benchmarks for U.S. spending. "It is time the United States makes it a priority of our foreign policy to meet this goal and help those who are struggling day to day," a statement issued by supporters, including Obama, said. Specifically, it would "declare" that the official U.S. policy is to eliminate global poverty, that the president is "required" to "develop and implement" a strategy to reach that goal and requires that the U.S. efforts be "specific and measurable." Kincaid said that after cutting through all of the honorable-sounding goals in the plan, the bottom line is that the legislation would mandate the 0.7 percent of the U.S. GNP as "official development assistance." "In addition to seeking to eradicate poverty, that (U.N.) declaration commits nations to banning 'small arms and light weapons' and ratifying a series of treaties, including the International Criminal Court Treaty, the Kyoto Protocol (global warming treaty), the Convention of Biological Diversity, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women and the Convention of the Rights of the Child," he said. Those U.N. protocols would make U.S. law on issues ranging from the 2nd Amendment to energy usage and parental rights all subservient to United Nations whims. No worries though, we will be in good hands..
