This is the most rediculous thing I have ever heard of, and to think that we elected our Senators to look out for our best interrests. The U.N. is not our friend and either are the majority of the countries in the U.N. They vote against us over 90 percent of the time and you so called American Senators think we sould give them athority over us ? Are you completely brain dead ? If this is passed we are headed for a socialist government and a one world government. Can’t you people see what is sitting right in front of you or have you all sold your souls to the enemy ? We are already deeply in the grip of China (thanks to the Clintons and Gore)with China holding our most of our money and importing our food supply. Ever hear the old saying, he who controos the food of a country hold control of that country? Wake up now before the people of this country do and they start taking the country back by force ! Thumbs down and a big fat NO to Treaty Doc. 103-39.
