OBAMA AND THE U.N. (REMEMBER THE U.N.?)
Title click to read article on FOURWINDS10.COM.
"Obama to us UN to disarm Americans
This is just in from Sen. Coburn's office. Obama has authored a bill, and it is now in the Senate, to give the UN .7% of our GNP to be used to feed hungry 3rd worlders, AND to use UN force to disarm you and me and all gun owners. No one in the media has brought this to the attention of the general sheeple out here."
"The U.S. would be required to surrender some of its sovereignty over foreign aid by putting it under UN control. The bill would force the U.S. to sign onto the U.N.'s Millennium Declaration, which would commit us not only to "banning small arms and light weapons" but also to adhere to the International Criminal Court Treaty and the Kyoto Protocol."

Outrageous Doesn't Even Begin To Describe This

The White House wants a $1.4 billion stimulus/national security package…for Mexico
By Michelle Malkin • February 11, 2008 01:54 PM
A reader asked me to check into information that President Bush was pushing a massive foreign-aid package to Mexico to help them secure their southern border against the flow of illegal aliens from Central America.
“We can’t even get our own border straight, and we are going to provide Mexico with funding so they can solve their problem,” the reader fumed. “I doubt the Central Americans are staying very long in Mexico anyway. We know where they are going!”
Too outrageously outrageous to be true?
Well, I checked it out and it’s even worse than the reader described. Far worse.
The plan is called “The Merida Initiative.” Seems that the White House has had this plan in the works for nearly a year with little congressional input on either side of the border.
We can’t finish our own border fence, properly supply our immigration agents and border patrol with all the equipment and resources they need, or get our house in order. Yet, the Bush administration wants to fork over $1.4 billion to Mexico and Central America–with much of it going into the hands of corrupt law enforcement officials and government bureaucrats who have worked tirelessly to undermine our immigration laws. The funding is tucked into the 2008 supplemental budget.
Naturally, the State Department has taken a lead role. They’ve held meetings in secret and cut out members of Congress from discussion. You’ll love the explanation for the secrecy: Mexico is “sensitive,” you see. Also, according to one expert, “Mexico is very protective of its sovereignty and very worried about any incursion of U.S. security forces or private contractors—like Blackwater—coming in to train Mexicans.” Yeah, they’re worried about incursions and sovereignty.

INTERNATIONAL INTERNET COMMUNITY AGENCY
Are you spending too much time on You Tube, My Space.com and the internet in general? The International Internet Community Agency says you are. The IICA wants to filter what Americans can view on the internet and tax time connected to the web. The proposed IICA regulations would allow filtering and censorship of what the international agency considers politically or morally objectionable internet material in the United States.
The head of the IICA, Yin Tzn Lo, former head of the Chinese Ministry of Internet Information, objects to current unregulated access to the internet Americans enjoy. Lo argues for stringent internet restraints claiming "Americans benefit from an intellectual advantage" via unfettered use of the internet. IICA goals include a level playing field for all peoples of the world.
The IICA is shopping proposed legislation around Washington DC with the hopes of convincing willing sponsors to take the bill to the Senate. Lo says he has received favorable responses to the IICA proposal from several elected officials. The bill would regulate domestic internet content through a government agency and, what is released out of the U.S. into cyberspace. Under the proposed legislation Internet users worldwide will start to see a monthly charge on their phone bills, or internet provider bill, taxing their time spent on the internet.
Opponents to the IICA proposal charge this international regulation is a violation of American’s Constitutional rights and a threat to the security and sovereignty of the United States. Several nations already monitor and regulate internet content.
What sane American would promote an international body regulating internet content and usage fees in the United States? Not many. And I would agree.
The above story is fiction. I made it up There is no IICA. If you began to feel angry or violated by the suggestion that an international body could regulate what you do on the internet and at what price, then good. You should have no problem understanding why citizens of Otero county would oppose U.N.World Heritage Site designation of White Sands National Monument.
At least the fake IICA and its proposed legislation had to go to Washington DC to be voted on by elected officials. U.N.World Heritage Site designation does not. Now, please enjoy the freedom of surfing the web while it is still free and uncensored.
