Mrs. Ted Nancy

26. "United Nations", Abortion, and too many regulations
Tue Dec 4, 2012, 10:19 PM
Dec 2012

"I do not support the cumbersome regulations and potentially overzealous international organizations with anti-American biases that infringe upon American society," said Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla.

Sen. Mike Lee "argued that the treaty by its very nature threatened U.S. sovereignty," and that because it includes language about providing equal access to reproductive health care to disabled people, it would lead to abortion."

In addition to what Mr. Scorpio wrote, if there is any way to tie an issue to abortion or regulations, they will do it. And they will vote against the U.N., abortion, and regulations every time. They are a bunch of crazy assholes.
