Well KHan and I just talked about this and he says (now that he is back on the democratic underground site and has "discovered" the information...like it didn't exist when I talked to him about it earlier, which he coincidentaly doesn't even remember *rolls eyes*) that it isn't a hoax and that the bill is in the House right this minute.
He said that it came about over the proposed World Court in the Netherlands, the U.S. pulling out of any kind of vote for it, the U.S. being shunned and the World Court being created anyway. He says this bill in the House is the Bush administrations attempt to cover their ass and nothing more but that if it passes, the Netherlands would indeed have cause for worry if any American citizen or military personnel were to be tried, convicted, and imprisoned through the World Court while Bush is in office. Its all beginning to look like something out of the Twilight Zone to me. I have never been a supporter of the Bush administration, I wouldn't put it past them to be the worst type of criminals and it brings to mind once when I said he was the anti-christ. Let's see how much of a democracy this country remains under his thumb, I mean rule, I mean presidency. Anyway, I'll make it a point to watch the national news this evening and see what really is going on (at least, what the media will tell us what is really going on ) |

I hope there are enough members of the House and the Senate to make this bill look like the toilet paper that it is. We already know how the president and the judicial branch are going to vote. |

I've seen more USA-bashing on these forums than I've ever seen anywhere. [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] I agree with the idea that we should not invade other countries, but I also agree that our country should NEVER allow one of our own to be killed in another court. Diplomacy is the key to get them back.

MagiK,
One your first comment, I have no comment...its over and there is no point arguing a dead argument. (HUGS) regarding the other though, when it only comes down to a question of what its worth to us money-wise, I say it definitely needs another going over. If we are going to be a part of the world, we should cooperate with it to some extent shouldn't we? Forget I asked that, unless you want to address it and don't care that it'll be a while before I see your response. I'm hungry so I am going to go see what I've got to eat. [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img] See you & everyone else later or tomorrow! [ 06-08-2002, 10:31 PM: Message edited by: Moni ] |
