The Senate is considering what seems on its face like a non-controversial UN treaty: the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. But it is controversial or it ought to be! I have blogged on this before. (Remember Sandy’s rule on UN Treaties: Bad UN law is repetitious!) But as Heritage Foundation testified today […]

Parentalrights.org has made a great argument as to why we should not ratify the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). I have largely incorporated it here at this blog post: But there is another treaty that has some of the fears that the UNCRC has (and which is generally shared with other […]

Seems this is a season for United Nations treaties. We have the usual two: CEDAW and the UN Child Treaty. Not too much on CEDAW but this report that the CEDAW committee criticized Brazil for not pushing abortion and also that the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights is reported to call for “reproductive rights […]

I like this resolution from the Denver County GOP on ICLEI and Agenda 21! It’s short, sweet and to the point. Here it is: RESOLUTION 5 – Opposing the United Nations Agenda 21 Whereas, The United Nations Agenda 21 promotes international directives and agendas and such as “smart growth” and “sustainable development” through the use […]

I said in the last blog: What is needed in Europe is an pro-liberty party that can run candidates in the EU elections and also local/national ones, too. (Perhaps help from a certain blogger in Virginia?) Have a similar message and reach out. No racists need apply! Until then, can Soini run a summer camp […]

Conservatives, libertarians and other constitutionalists are usually accused of paranoia in the issue of UN treaties. As the well-written comment made a few days ago by Rightsman states: Many states and localities are adopting the principles of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). The CRC is NOT binding on the US […]

This continuing series about the Maine GOP Platform took an interesting turn yesterday at the United States Supreme Court. First, let’s cite the pertinent sections of that radical off the wall document: Oppose any and all treaties with the UN or any other organization or country which surrenders US sovereignty. Specifically: i. Reject the […]
