Boxer Urges Quick Handover of U.S. Power to UN

Senator Barbara Boxer (D, CA) wants to speed the process of handing power over U.S.
sovereignty to the United Nations as soon as possible by urging the State Department to
come out in support of the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
The UNCRC imposes on all treaty signatories power over laws concerning children and, by
extension, families. The largest portion of laws concerning children and families in the U.S.
are state statutes so this treaty would, in actual fact, eliminate all family laws in the various
states and hand the power over this area of law to the U.N. as per the Supremacy Clause to
the U.S. Constitution (Article V1) that states that treaties preempt state laws.
Boxer is eager to destroy the entire lot of family laws throughout the country supposedly to
protect “the most vulnerable people of society.”
But even the new left-wing U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., Susan Rice, is aware of how
difficult this process could be. Calling it a “complicated treaty” and worried over the
“challenges of domestic implementation,” Rice would not commit to any time table to
proceeding with consideration of the UNCRC. Senator Boxer, however, demanded a 60-day
timeframe for the State Department to complete its review so that ratification can move
forward.
Naturally, Boxer is in favor of destroying U.S. sovereignty by implementing this unAmerican
treaty.

COMMUNIST PRETENDING TO BE LIBERAL, REAL LIBERALS NOW ARE CONSERVATIVES
A liberal is someone who rejects logical and biblical standards, often for self-centered reasons. There are no coherent liberal standards; often a liberal is merely someone who craves attention, and who uses many words to say nothing.
A liberal supports many of the following political positions and practices.
* Taxpayer-funded and/or legalized abortion
* Censorship of teacher-lead prayer in classrooms and school sponsored events
* Support for gun control
* Support of obscenity and pornography as a First Amendment right[1]
* Income redistribution, usually through progressive taxation
* Government-rationed medical care, such as Universal Health Care
* Taxpayer-funded and government-controlled public education
* The denial of inherent gender differences
* Insisting that men and women have the same access to jobs in the military
* Legalized same-sex marriage
* Implementation of affirmative action
* Political correctness
* Support of labor unions
* Teaching acceptance of promiscuity through sexual "education" rather than teaching abstinence from sex.[2]
* A "living Constitution" that is reinterpreted as liberals prefer, rather than how it was intended
* Government programs to rehabilitate criminals
* Abolition of the death penalty
* Environmentalism[3]
* Disarmament treaties
* Globalism
* Opposition to an interventionalist American foreign policy [4]
* Opposition to full private property rights[5]
* Reinstating the Fairness Doctrine
* In 2005, it was reported by CBS News that liberals were the most likely supporters of the theory of evolution. The theory of evolution is a key component of atheistic ideologies in the Western World.
* Opposition to domestic wire-tapping as authorized in the Patriot Act
* Calling anyone they agree with a "professor" regardless of whether he earned that distinction based on a real peer review of his work (see, e.g., Richard Dawkins and Barack Obama).
********** Original meaning: Classical Liberalism
Liberalism is a political philosophy with freedom as its core value. The term was originally applied to supporters of individual liberties and equal rights, but, in America, the term has come to represent a movement of social change that often conflicts with conservative values such as moral values and tradition. TODAY'S LIBERAL IS FASCIST, COMMUNIST, ATHIEST

By contrast, Kerry's lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union (ACU), which is
essentially the AFDA's political opposite, stands at just 5 percent - the third lowest figure in
the entire Senate, higher only than the ACU ratings for Ted Kennedy and Barbara Boxer.
The ACU ratings for some other notable Democrats are: 13 percent apiece for Richard
Gephardt, Hillary Clinton, and Tom Daschle; 14 percent for John Edwards; 15 percent for
Dennis Kucinich; and 19 percent for Joe Lieberman. Senator John Breaux, one of the upper
chamber's few moderate Democrats, has a 46 percent ACU rating.

In January 2007, Senator Boxer was the subject of controversy after criticizing U.S.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for not having children. "Who pays the price?" Boxer
asked Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. "I'm not going to pay a personal price. My kids
are too old and my grandchild is too young. You're not going to pay a personal price, as I
understand it, with an immediate family." The New York Post and White House Press
Secretary Tony Snow considered this an attack on Rice's status as a single, childless female
and referred to Boxer's comments as "a great leap backward for feminism."

Boxer was involved in the House banking scandal, in which a number of Representatives
bounced checks written on their accounts in the House Bank. Boxer wrote 143 overdraft
checks over a period of three years that totalled $41,417.

The environment
Boxer successfully led the 2003 Senate floor battle to block oil drilling in the Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge.[37] In 2005, Boxer voted again to block oil drilling at ANWR.
Boxer has introduced the National Oceans Protection Act (NOPA) of 2005.[38] Some of the
provisions of this act are: strengthen ocean governance; protect and restore marine wildlife
and habitats; address ocean pollution; improve fisheries management. The bill also addresses
needs regarding marine science, research and technology, marine mammals, coastal
development, and invasive species.
Boxer is an original cosponsor of Senator Jim Jeffords’ (I-VT) Clean Power Act.[39] This
legislation would reduce emissions of four pollutants coming from power plants; sulfur dioxide,
nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and mercury. killing mom and pop businesses
As the new head of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee in January 2007,
Boxer wants to reduce energy consumption. She is trying to curb global warming by leading
pilot programs. The few things that she and some of her fellow Senators are doing could cut
electricity consumption by as much as 50 percent in their Capitol Hill offices.[40]
Senator Boxer was the Senate sponsor of the Northern California Coastal Wild Heritage
Wilderness Act, which was signed in to law by President George W. Bush on October 17,
2006. The bill protected 275,830 acres (1,116 km2) of federal land as wilderness and 21
miles (34 km) of stream as a wild and scenic river, including such popular areas as the King
Range and Cache Creek.[41] Senator Boxer worked with Senator Dianne Feinstein and
Representative Mike Thompson (the bill's House sponsor) in the five-year effort to pass the
legislation.
Boxer along with her colleague Dianne Feinstein voted in favor of subsidy payments to
conventional commodity farm producers at the cost of subsidies for conservation-oriented
farming.[42]
[edit] Abortion

Boxer authored the Freedom of Choice Act of 2004 and participated in the floor fight for
passage of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act.
Boxer is an original cosponsor of the Title X Family Planning Services Act of 2005, S.844, by
Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY). This legislation aims to improve access to women's health
care. It authorizes funding for family planning services grants; allows states to provide such
services to individuals who may not be eligible for Medicaid; prohibits health insurance
providers from excluding contraceptive services, drugs or devices from benefits; establishes a
program to disseminate information on emergency contraception; requires hospitals receiving
federal funding to offer emergency contraception to victims of sexual assault; provides grants
to public and private entities to establish or expand teen pregnancy prevention programs; and
requires that federally funded education programs about contraception be medically accurate
and include information about health benefits and failure rates.
Boxer does not support restrictions on the availability of abortion, such as late-term
("partial-birth") abortion procedures, and parental notification requirements.
[edit] Victims of violence
As a member of the House of Representatives, Boxer authored the original Violence Against
Women Act. Later in 1994, she cosponsored, and the Senate passed, the Violence Against
Women Act, which provided reforms to the criminal justice system to better prosecute
violent crimes against women, and provided Federal funding to local law enforcement agencies
for training and equipment necessary for prosecution. Boxer has also authored the Violence
Against Children Act, based on the successful VAWA. (Boxer has been a consistent advocate
of the death penalty until recently. In 2006 she introduced a bill calling for a moratorium on
the death penalty.)
[edit] Social Security
Boxer supports the current system of Social Security, and opposed President George W.
Bush's plan for partial privatization of Social Security.[43][44] She introduced the 401(k)
Pension Protection Act to protect retirement by requiring the diversification of 401(k) plans.
A modified version of the bill was signed into law as part of the 1997 tax bill.
Following the Enron scandal, Boxer again worked to ensure that retirement plans are
diversified. She also introduced a bill to prohibit accounting firms from auditing and
consulting for the same company.
[edit] National security
After the September 11, 2001 attacks, Boxer authored a bill to protect commercial airliners
against attacks by shoulder-fired missiles, and wrote the law allowing airline pilots with
special training to carry guns in the cockpit.
Senator Boxer has lunch with California Marines during her visit to Iraq. (2005-03-22)
Boxer wrote the High-Tech Port Security Act, and sponsored the Chemical Security Act to
address terrorist threats against chemical plants. Senator Boxer also cosponsored
comprehensive rail security legislation.
[edit] Iraq War
In October 2002 Boxer voted against the joint resolution passed by the U.S. Congress to
authorize the use of military force by the Bush Administration against Iraq.[45][46][47]
Later on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart she characterized that vote as "The best vote of
my life."
In June 2005, Senators Boxer and Russ Feingold (D-WI) cosponsored Senate Resolution 171
calling for a timeframe for U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq.
Boxer's petition demanding an exit strategy from Iraq drew 107,218 signatures.[48]
[edit] Surveillance
In June 2008 Boxer spoke in the Senate in opposition to the FISA Amendments Act of
2008,[49] a pending bill in the United States Congress to amend the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act,[50] and later broke with her counterpart Sen. Dianne Feinstein and voted
against it.[51]
[edit] Election reform
Senators Boxer and Clinton unveil the Count Every Vote Act. (2005-02-18)
On 18 February 2005 Senators Boxer, Hillary Clinton, and Representative Stephanie Tubbs
Jones introduced the Count Every Vote Act of 2005, which would provide a voter verified
paper ballot for every vote cast in electronic voting machines and ensure access to voter
verification for all citizens. The bill mandates that this ballot be the official ballot for
purposes of a recount. The bill sets a uniform standard for provisional ballots and requires
the Federal Election Assistance Commission to issue standards that ensure uniform access to
voting machines and trained election personnel in every community. The bill also mandated
improved security measures for electronic voting machines.[52] The bill did not pass.
[edit] Bush nominees
During the confirmation hearings for the United States Secretary of State nominee
Condoleezza Rice in January 2005, Boxer challenged her to admit to alleged mistakes and
false statements made by the Bush Administration in leading the United States into the 2003
invasion of Iraq, and ultimately voted against confirmation, along with twelve other senators.
[53][54] The dissent was the highest vote against a Secretary of State nominee since 1825
when Henry Clay was so named.[55]
Boxer voted against John Bolton's nomination for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations in
the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and filibustered him on the Senate floor. As a result
of the strong Democratic opposition Bolton could not obtain Senate approval. However,
President Bush bypassed the Senate by employing the constitutional right of recess
appointment, only the second time such an appointment has been used for a United States
ambassador to the United Nations since the UN's founding in 1945. Recess appointments
themselves have been used numerous times by various presidents.
Boxer voted against the confirmation of Chief Justice of the United States nominee John
Roberts, and against the confirmation of Associate Justice nominee Samuel Alito.[56][57] Her
votes against these two nominees were motivated by concerns over their record on abortion,
women's rights, and the proper role of executive authority.
[edit] Foreign policy
In 1997 the Senate passed a Boxer resolution calling on the United States not to recognize
the Taliban as the official government of Afghanistan because of its human rights abuses
against women.

In 2002, Senator Boxer voted against the U.S. invasion of Iraq. She has subsequently
referred to that vote as the best vote of her career. She also voted against the first Gulf
War (Operation Desert Storm) while a member of the House in 1991[58] and was a very vocal
protester against the Vietnam War in the 1970s.[59]
Boxer is a cosponsor of S. 495, or the Darfur Accountability Act of 2005, which would
impose sanctions against perpetrators of crimes against humanity in Darfur.
[edit] The Internet
Along with former Republican Senator George Allen (R-VA), Boxer authored the Jumpstart
Broadband Act. This bill would make more spectrum available for use by devices that
incorporate new broadband technology, such as WiFi. The Federal Communications Commission
is now implementing the Boxer-Allen bill.
Boxer opposes access and sales taxes on the Internet, co-authoring a bill with Republican
Sen. George Allen in 2001 to extend the Internet tax moratorium for five years.
[edit] Gun control
Senator Boxer joined colleagues to pass a Federal ban on various semi-automatic firearms and
established the COPS program. She supports reauthorization of both programs.
[edit] LGBT issues
The Human Rights Campaign gave Boxer ratings of 100%, 88% and 100% for the 107th,
108th, and 110th sessions of Congress, respectively, indicating a support of the HRC's slate
of pro-gay legislative issues.[60] In 1996, she was one of fourteen Senators to vote against
the Defense of Marriage Act[61] and also voted against the Federal Marriage Amendment in
2004 and 2006,[62] although when San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom issued a directive to
the city-county clerk to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples she stated that she
supported California's domestic partnership law but agreed with its definition that marriage
was between a man and a woman.[63] She has also co-sponsored the Matthew Shepard Act,
[64] which would expand the federal definition of hate crimes to include crimes based on the
victim's sexual orientation and gender identity, as well as the Uniting American Families Act.
[65] She opposed Proposition 8, which eliminated the right of same-sex couples to marry in
California.
[edit] India-U.S. nuclear deal
Boxer is one of the most outspoken critics of the nuclear energy deal between the United
States and India. Boxer is of the opinion that India should not get help from the U.S. in the
civilian nuclear energy sector until it breaks its relationship with Iran.[66]
[edit] Indian gaming
The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, formerly the Federated Coast Miwok, was
officially recognized by the U.S. government on 27 December 2000, pursuant to an act of
Congress. California 6th District Representative Lynn Woolsey introduced the Graton
Rancheria Restoration Act (105th CONGRESS, 2d Session, H.R. 4434) 6 August 1998. It was
ultimately approved and signed by President Clinton as Title XIV of the Omnibus Indian
Advancement Act (Public Law No. 106-568).
Representative Woolsey's original bill (H.R. 4434, later H.R. 946) would not have permitted
the FIGR to have a casino. Senator Boxer removed that prohibition when she included
Woolsey's bill in the Omnibus Act.
