REP. RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT | REAL TIME W BILL MAHER 3-30-07
A Ron Paul observation from 2000
"An extraordinary event occurred . . . in Washington during the final days of the 106th Congress, an event that did not receive comment in either the media or the halls of Congress, save for my office. This event had been termed "unthinkable" only a few months earlier. It occurred despite clear constitutional prohibitions and at the expense of our precious national sovereignty. For the first time in the history of our country, Congress voted to change our domestic laws because an international body told us to do so. The World Trade Organization (WTO) has begun to dictate American laws."(The globalists of the New World Order, that are comprised of those secret society members who have inordinate control over the multinational corporations that monopolize the necessities of modern life - energy, communications, medicine and pharmaceuticals, and transportation.
