UN to monitor elections?

Opponents to hold ‘world government’ bake sale

JOEY DAUBEN

WAXAHACHIE – One southeast Dallas congresswoman wants the United Nations to monitor this year’s elections, but Ellis County residents and officials don’t see that happening.

Eddie Bernice Johnson, D-Dallas, has 10 co-sponsors on a request to the world governing body to send elections observers to see that a “repeat of Florida’s 2000 vote debacle” is not repeated.

“We are hoping that our action will alleviate the nation from the suffering it took in 2000 when things went awry at the ballot box,” Johnson said last week. “We are hoping our action will restore confidence in the electoral process. We are hoping that every registered person gets to vote and that that vote is counted.”

Jane Anderson, the county’s election administrator, said the state sends observers out each election cycle, but she was said Ellis County has not had a problem on those observers’ reports.

“We’ve never had a problem with elections,” she said. “Never a bad report. There were some things they said we could improve upon, like more pencils in the voting booth.”

Anderson, who noted that by 2006 federal law will require at least one electronic voting machines at every poll, also said in order for the UN to send observers, assuming that would happen, they would have to go through the necessary application process.

“They can’t come in and just observe, they have to be checked for credentials. It gets to a point [already] where too many people float around and become disruptive.”

All 10 of the congressmen and women are Democrats, according to a press conference the group of lawmakers had last week.

The UN, based in New York City and home to what many opponents consider some of the most brutal authoritarian governments in the world, is funded with $3 billion of US taxpayer dollars, according to the federal government.

In response to Johnson’s request, Chris Rasster and other area political activists have proposed holding a “UN Bake Sale” to sell cookies and cupcakes complete with the UN’s trademark light blue logo. The proceeds, Rasster said, would go towards purchasing Austin-based radio talk show host Alex Jones’ videos and DVDs, an effort, he said, to educate people on the dangers of world government and various UN programs.

“We’ll also have rice crispy towers with butter cookie walls resembling the coming world government prisons,” he said. “Then, we could put gummi bears inside the walls and also melt a few gummi bears in an oven made of debbie snacks.”

Recently, the Bush Administration abandoned an exemption from the UN’s International Criminal Court against American soldiers, and last year, President Bush sought the re-funding of the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization, or UNESCO, a world government education curriculum for schools. If Congress approves the Free Trade of the Americas Agreement in December, the UN, upon implementation Jan. 1, will have complete control over the US military, according to dozens of FTAA web sites.

Complete control of the U.S. military? That means they could tell the U.S. military to destroy NYC, LA, and Houston, and we wouldn't be able to do a thing. No, I think the lack of any complaint about this is enough evidence for me to say reasonably confidently that the UN is not going to have complete control of the U.S. military any time soon.


-----"""The U.N. can butt the **** out of our elections. Is there one *******ed American who wants them here? """

Was this a U.N. proposition? Are they really butting into our elections? Cause I was under the impression it was a stupid idea proposed by one American. Don't go all ape**** at the U.N. for something they didn't do, and didn't even propose, mpk. Idiot.


-----"""we although we disagreed with france didnt wage war on them for not supporting us in war."""

How generous of us.


-----"""but when it comes down to it, its just that theFrench ae against and hate America even thugh we have troops there protecting teh French"""

And where did you come up with this notion that the U.S. has a military sationed in France? There haven't been foreign troops in France since WW2; the French don't even take UN troops to protect their country...and even if we were protecting them what the hell would we be protecting them from? And NO, they do not hate America, you ignorant fool. They hate Bush.

its mostly floridian liberals i believe that want this and two we didnt force any country to go to war. we although we disagreed with france didnt wage war on them for not supporting us in war. im am mad because they wont help us in rebuilding and bringing peace to Iraq. somthing they wanted so badly before. but when it comes down to it, its just that theFrench ae against and hate America even thugh we have troops there protecting teh French.

While I basically agree with your statements concerning the UN, there is a flipside to this coin in that our own current administration and many Americans themselves support much the same thing. France, Germany, and other countries are also soverign nations and not obligated to support American polocies. The attitude of the UN for the US on issies like the war is no worse than the US's ridiculously oversimplified 'you are either for us or against everything good in the world, and for the 'evil' terrorists' doctrine, or many American's knee-jerk reactionary outrage to the very notion that not every country is going to support and agree with everything we do, as if they had some obligation to.

we will be giving more and more power and authority to the UN over us. we owe absolutley no responsibility to the UN. The UN now thinks that we have to gain their approval to go to war.

I'm really not a big fan of the UN. I do think that the election debacle down here in florida was shady as hell and probably criminal, I don't think the UN should step in and interfere with our elections. I just hope some people within our own country will help prevent another florida crime from happening.

Iceland, you're wrong. How about you look up some stuff...

The military disarment program was signed by JFK and its last phase will be complete on January, 1, 2005.

-----"""the UN, upon implementation Jan. 1, will have complete control over the US military, according to dozens of FTAA web sites."""

Wrong.

I don't get the whole bake sale part. Seems like a joke.

And not to worry, that was just the rough draft.

The edited version actually gets published in the paper.
