Bush Continues to Support UN "Law of The Sea" Treaty

Story dated 19 January 2005

"What 'Law of the Sea' treaty?" you are probably asking. Yeah, that's a new one on me too. In a nutshell, it "would turn the oceans and their incomprehensible riches over to the world body." The U.N. would basically have direct control over 2/3 of the earth's surface. My simple answer is no. I am going to write my senators and tell them I don't support this. It will inhibit the operation of the U.S. Navy, which, along with the Air Force, is the first line of defense against tyranny abroad. I have no idea how this will impact U.S. territorial waters -- the article was unclear on whether or not this treaty covered only the High Seas, but even if it did, I would be opposed to it. I find Bush's support of the U.N., considering the organization is comprised of mostly rapacious tyrants, to be disturbing.
