United Nations - The New Great Father Knows Best
Conquering nations, when dealing with indigenous individuals, have, over the ages, presented themselves to the indigenous as the “Great Father,” displaying their parental love with trinkets, confiscation of tribal lands to ensure the indigenous remain in the designated play areas, and various other indignanties.
Obama, acting as the United States’ current Great Father/Messiah, has evidently come to the conclusion that parents throughout these United States are not sufficiently qualified to parent their own children, and that the United States as a whole lacks this qualification, and thus the United States must acknowledge their parental failings by adopting the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which effectively makes the United Nations the Great Father of children throughout the world.
What does this mean for parents, and the United States as a whole? From the blog Mindless and Spineless.
· The laws of all 50 states on children and parents would be superseded by this international law by virtue of a specific provision of the US Constitution which expressly declares treaties to be supreme over state law. Virtually all law on children and parents is state law.
· Good parents would no longer be entitled to the legal presumption that they act in the best interests of their children. Instead, the government would have the authority to overrule all parents on any decision concerning the child if the government believed it could make a better decision.
· Parents could no longer spank their children.
· Children would have the legal right to choose their own religion. Parents would be permitted only to give advice.
· America would be under a binding legal obligation to massively increase its federal spending on children’s programs.
