We have previously asked prayer for passage of H.R. 1146, "The American Sovereignty Protection Act," sponsored by Rep. Ron Paul. If passed, H.R. 1146 would require the United States to withdraw its membership from the United Nations. H.R. 1146 is currently in a subcommittee of the House International Relations Committee, with only 18 cosponsors. Pray that the public be made aware of this legislation, as well as the impending danger our republic faces from the United Nations. Pray for passage of H.R. 1146.

UN INVITES 1,000 WORLD RELIGIOUS LEADERS TO MEET
Next month, 1,000 guests will attend the Millennium World Peace Summit of Religious and Spiritual Leaders at the United Nations. These leaders, including Catholic, Protestant and Jewish representatives, will first attend a session of the UN General Assembly; afterwards going to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel for the remainder of their summit. Two notable religious figures will not attend, however: Pope John Paul II, and the Dalai Lama. Pope John is instead sending another emissary from the Vatican, while the Dalai Lama has not been invited. (China holds one of five permanent seats at the UN Security Council and has long opposed his speaking at the United Nations.) The Honorary Chairman of the event is media mogul Ted Turner. Canadian businessman Maurice Strong is the top advisory board member, and Timothy Wirth is the Vice President of the summit's Executive Counsel. The religious leaders are expected to issue a Declaration for World Peace and agree to some form of permanent International Advisory Council of Religious and Spiritual Leaders.

"Dangerous Extremists"
"No doubt the nuts who run around with the Constitution or the Bible in their vehicles are the most dangerous of all. You probably need to shoot them on sight." --Sam Francis ridiculing an article, "Vehicle Stops Involving Extremist Group Members," in the most recent issue of the FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, identifying "dangerous extremists" as those with anti-government or pro-gun bumper stickers.
Harriet Tubman Not PC
In the state of Maryland, historical fact has again collided with historical revision. Baltimore's Associated Black Charities has rejected a mural of Harriet Tubman carrying a musket, which was produced for its downtown building headquarters. Artist Mike Alewitz refused to replace the gun with a staff, saying, "I will not disarm Harriet Tubman." Tubman, one of Maryland's most famous daughters, regularly carried weapons while operating her Underground Railroad ferrying slaves to freedom. The ABC thought it just too controversial to show Miss Tubman with a gun in a city that sports a murder every day. Of course, that is why every woman in Baltimore should be sporting a gun!

Clinton Deleted from BSA
Due to a rash of returned Eagle Scout certificates with objections to Clinton's name on the award, the BSA has quietly deleted his name. None of the 47,000 Eagle Scouts certificates issued since 1999 have been adorned with "Bill Clinton."
"Clinton's Assumption That We Are All Stupid Shows Again "
The Great Prevaricator spent the week chastising that "extreme right winger," Dick Cheney. "Now, all the big publicity is about, in the last few days, an amazing vote cast by their vice presidential nominee when he was in Congress against letting Nelson Mandela out of jail," said Clinton, always on the prowl for any racial division opportunity. "That takes your breath away."
Truth: When Mr. Cheney was a House member from Wyoming, he did vote against a nonbinding resolution calling for Mandela's release AND for U.S. recognition of Mandela's Communist front, the African National Congress. Mr. Cheney, like most of his conservative colleagues, did not want to lend his support to Marxists.
And a note about Clinton, the consummate hypocrite: The day after he leveled his charges against Mr. Cheney, he was heaping praise on Bill Nelson, the Democratic candidate for a U.S. Senate seat in Florida. Clinton proclaimed Nelson "a man of great judgment," but according to the Congressional Record, Mr. Nelson was one of 32 Democrats in Congress who voted with Mr. Cheney against the Mandela resolution.

In Case You Didn't Notice, You Weren't Supposed To
While all eyes were on the convention, the House approved a massive appropriations bill that included nearly $30 billion dollars for the Treasury Department. Included in the bill is a 23% increase in funding for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms to hire 600 new national police agents to enforce their ever-expanding gun restrictions. It is hard to believe this soon after the Waco findings....
Oh, House members also concealed their pay raise as part of this appropriation.
Bad News For Al
The National Weather Service is reporting that this summer is not only wet, but it is the coolest since 1918 in Gore's childhood hometown, Washington, D.C. -- a bad forecast for the Left-Reverend of Eco-Theology to make his globaloney case against free enterprise.
Quotes
"Jerry Springer just donated $10,000 to Hillary Clinton's U.S. Senate campaign. That's very odd. Why would a guy who hosts a show featuring cheating husbands and foul-mouthed wives have any interest in the Clintons?" --Argus Hamilton
"Clinton will veto [legislation eliminating the marriage tax penalty] because he says it would encourage people to get married for purely financial reasons. And we all know that people should only get married for purely political reasons." --Bill Maher
"Bill Clinton is in fat-guy heaven, splashing around in the political pool. Poor Al Gore may end up getting soaked." --Wall Street Journal
"Only one person is going to be picked, and the others will not be." --Al Gore explains how he will select his veep:
"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man and brave, hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds however, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot." --Mark Twain
"Republicans who support affirmative action (there are those who do) must love Adam Clayton -- Oops! -- Colin Powell. Those who don't must be glad he's slated to be, if George Bush becomes President, secretary of state, a position from which he will find it difficult to inflict his version of Rockefeller Republicanism on his party or his country. ...Perhaps the good general should sign up for a refresher course in civics before he signs on as secretary of state." --Lyn Nofziger
"Of all the 'gates' spawned by the Clinton regime, I recommend one more as the final chapter of this administration: Fumigate!"
