You people don’t seem to understand the rules of the Universe:wink-wink :
The US accepts any “correct” ruling, by any international body. It’s only the incorrect ones the US ignores. Fortunately George Bush has done more than any president to insure that only “correct” International rulings are respected. :Cry:
The saddest thing, is the US created the UN, designed the Security Council and made the rules. The US pushed NAFTA on the Canada and Mexico (i happen to think it’s good idea), then refused to accept a ruling the sided with Canada on lumber. After 24 years of fighting, the US finally settled with Canada, forcing Canada to accept less than the NAFTA ruling had given. The US didn’t like the old GATT rules and led the creation of the WTO, then ignores rulings against it.
It’s pretty amazing, but when i was growing up in the US, we were told how the Soviet Union never lived up to the treaties it signed. Now you grow up, find out (regardless of what the Soviets did) that the US doesn’t live up to many of it’s agreements too. Nobody, no country is perfect, but GwB and his merry band never think they’re wrong, yet they are rarely right. SAD. :slapface:
The worst part is that UIGEA wasn’t really Bush’s work. :rolleyes:
