I'm Running Out of Ways to Say "We're..."

"...fucked".

The Senate is gearing up to ratify a Nixon-era U.N. treaty meant to create universal laws to govern the seas -- a treaty critics say will create a massive U.N. bureaucracy that could even claim powers over American waterways.

LOST -- the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea, also called the Law of the Sea Treaty -- regulates all things oceanic, from fishing rights, navigation lanes and environmental concerns to what lies beneath: the seabed's oil and mineral wealth that companies hope to explore and exploit in coming years.


Gee, everyone thank Crusader for the day brightener. This is all a bad, BAD dream, from which there is no escape possible. FOR YEARS.

Unless...

Worth a try, right?

I've been clicking my heels and muttering, "There's no time like the Reagan era" but still nothing.

Nope. Not Kansas, Sis. Obama is still the president. We're still farook'd.

Crap. This will REALLY screw up things. A huge amount of our commerce moves over the inland and coastal waterways. There's nothing better to screw up an economy (even more) than cranking up transportation costs.

Thanks, Dhimmicrats. For nuttin'.
