A majority of Republicans who voted against the treaty, which was modeled after our ADA, said they feared it would hurt American sovereignty. The treaty, already signed by 155 nations and ratified by 126 countries, including Britain, France, Germany, China and Russia, states that nations should strive to assure that the disabled enjoy the same rights and fundamental freedoms as their fellow citizens.

If it is already modeled after U.S. law then it need not be passed.

So Senator Jim Dement resigns 12-6-12, is this another Sara Palin? What is disgusting is he voted down this treaty & then resigns. That isn't leadership that is greed. He is suppose to make three times the salary, but he helps people! Leave now & don't let the door hit you in the ass!

Senators from both parties went to greet Mr. Dole, as he sat in support of the treaty, which would require that people with disabilities have the same general rights as those without disabilities. Several members took the unusual step of voting aye while seated at their desks, out of respect for Mr. Dole, 89, a Republican who was the majority leader.

Shelby (R-AL)Thune(R-SD,Toomey(R-PA),­Vitter(R-LA),Wicker (R-MS). These people need to go! I am baffled by this treaty created by GOP would think it would threaten our sovereignty & home schooled kids, which is another topic on its own, these kids usually have no social skills & how do they get into college? I am sick of these conspiracy paranoid idiots!
