Germany’s Merkel Calls for US to Give Up Sovereignty

Last year when Barrack Obama won the Democrat Party’s nomination for president he went to Berlin to announce his victory. And now almost a year later Germany’s Chancellor Merkel comes to the United States demanding capitulation from the American people. Is any of this starting to add up to you?

In a speech to a joint session of Congress this morning, German Chancellor Angela Merkel told Congress that there was “no time to lose” in the fight against global warming. “We need an agreement at the climate conference in December in Copenhagen,” she said. “That requires the readiness of all countries to accept binding international commitments.”

Binding international commitments means one thing, giving up our sovereignty.

Our founding fathers told us through their writings to steer clear of European entanglements. We do not require any agreements with them now or in the future for that matter. We mustn’t get involved with this madness. This is our sovereignty, our ability to govern our own country, not any global community Merkel, or for that matter Obama, represents. We, the US citizenry, govern our own country.

Gay-marriage drive defeated in Maine

The AP article begins with,

“The stars seemed aligned for supporters of gay marriage. They had Maine’s governor, legislative leaders and major newspapers on their side, plus a huge edge in campaign funding. So losing a landmark referendum was a devastating blow, for activists in Maine and nationwide.”

What the supporters of gay marriage failed to realize is that the citizenry weren’t aligned to support their aims. Once again another state rejects gay marriage, and in the case of Maine, a fairly leftist state at that.

But I am willing to bet, as is the case here in Ohio, the same supporters, such as the governor, legislative body and the dwindling media, will attempt to out maneuver the citizenry and impose their ideals upon them. According to the statist/leftist’s reasoning the will of the people means nothing.

Further into the article this is made clear.

Richard Socarides, who was an adviser on gay-rights issues in the Clinton administration, said the loss in Maine should prompt gay-rights leaders to reconsider their state-by-state strategy on marriage and shift instead to lobbying for changes on the federal level that expand recognition of same-sex couples.

So we can be assured their efforts will be to work through the oligarchs in Washington City to usurp the sovereignty of the states and the people (or what little remains).
