Copenhagen Treaty - Lord Monckton Warns of New World Government

(From Freedom Works, http://www.freedomworks.org/blog/thale/lord-monckton-on-the-copenhagen-treaty) "There has been considerable debate raised about Monckton's conclusion that the Copenhagen Treaty would cede US sovereignty. His comments appear to be based upon his interpretation of the The Supremacy Clause in the US Constitution (Article VI, paragraph 2). This clause establishes the Constitution, Federal Statutes, and U.S. TREATIES as the supreme law of the land. Concerns have been raised in the past that a particularly ambitious treaty may supersede the US Constitution. In the 1950s, a constitutional amendment, known as the Bricker Amendment, was proposed in response to such fears, but it failed to pass. You can read more about the Bricker Amendment in a 1953 Time Magazine article" (partially copied below):

"One of the greatest constitutional crises the country has ever faced," said the American Bar Association, and argued that the Bricker Amendment should be passed to protect the Union from dire peril.

"The most momentous constitutional issue since President Roosevelt's attempt to pack the Supreme Court," said the Washington Post, and argued that the Bricker Amendment should be defeated to protect the Union from dire peril.

This week the U.S., quietly and in measured tones, is in the midst of a constitutional great debate. Ohio's junior Senator, Republican John William Bricker, touched it off by proposing a constitutional amendment. Its main aim: to restrict the making of U.S. domestic law by international treaty. Earnest Lawyer Bricker argues that his amendment would plug "a dangerous constitutional loophole." Members of President Eisenhower's Cabinet argue that it would "damage [the] balance of power" between Congress and the President and "completely hamstring" the conduct of foreign relations, and Wisconsin's Senator Alexander Wiley calls the amendment "the most dangerous thing that has ever been brought before Congress." But 44 other Republican Senators (and 19 Democratic Senators) agreed to cosponsor the Bricker Amendment. Several state bar associations have endorsed it, but the New York State Bar Association denounces it as "unnecessary, unwise, divisive and dangerous."

The Supreme Law. The debate turns on a clause (Article VI, Clause 2) in the U.S. Constitution that makes treaties—along with federal laws and the Constitution itself—"the supreme Law of the Land . . . any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding." Laws must be made "in pursuance" of the Constitution, but treaties need only be made "under the Authority of the United States," i.e., by the President, "by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate . . . provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur." Thus treaty provisions can, without legislation, become internal law, enforceable on individual citizens and overriding conflicting laws, both state and federal. If a treaty provision is not enforceable as it stands, Congress has the power under Article I to make "necessary and proper" laws to put it into effect.

As interpreted by the Supreme Court, Article VI means that treaty provisions, or "necessary and proper" laws based on the treaties, can regulate matters that the Constitution otherwise reserves to the states and the people. After federal courts had declared a 1913 migratory-bird protection law invalid on the ground that it violated the Tenth Amendment ("The powers not delegated ... are reserved . . ."), the U.S. and Canada agreed by treaty to protect birds that flew between the two countries. Then Congress passed a law similar to the 1913 law. In 1920, in the famous Missouri v. Holland decision, the Supreme Court upheld the statute, ruling in effect that the Federal Government can derive from treaties legislative powers not specifically granted by the Constitution.

Last week the hacked e-mail touting the deceptions was printed in the NY Times ... yet none of the major news networks reported on it, other than FOX. The corporate and political machine is hard at not reporting it and covering it all up to serve their own agendas ... but just do some google searches on climate change hackers and you'll find lots more on line.

[fredomfighter2012]

wow thee UN is working hard trying to cover up all angles the links that were posted all have disappeared

[ClaudiaMontana8]

Please see the updated 'more info' section. While the original links may have broken up, I have added them at the the bottom and tried them - these are all working properly. I've also added a link to the actual draft treaty and an opposing viewpoint article.

Global warming is a hoax...they knew this, which is why they changed the name to "climate change". But the earth has been cooler and hotter through history without us humans having an effect on it. This "climate change" agenda is only being pushed in order to create a one world government which they can carbon tax you on everything and the elite (with their corporations) can control you and enjoy a non-stop flow of money from you and I. Please look at my favourited videos for more info!!!!!!!

Obama! That big eared slimy Traitor! Impeach that fraud before it's to late!

@CaramelCleo ~ With the virtually unlimited amount of money and resources they have, they can buy a lot of silence. Not to mention the fact that they own all the mainstream media and thereby are in control of what does get printed and what doesn't. Same for the TV news.

Those links to the Times articles have disipated again! That Polifact article is interesting but seems biased under the guise of being critical as well as being proven wrong from the subsequent negotiating texts. It seems though that the truth is beginning to gain some momentum, keep up the good work and merry christmas from ireland!

Just like the neocon John Bolton to play down the truth. I wish Lord Monckton would have called him out on it.
