Say again?

International observers will be monitoring the upcoming US presidential election?

Does this news make anyone else a little anxious?

The article says 13 House Democrats were the first to push for international observation, citing civil rights violations in 2000. Never mind that no one has ever backed those allegations up. It's simply a convenient club to beat the President with.

The article also says the US signed a document 10 years ago asking the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe to monitor our elections. That would have happened in President Clinton's tenure, wouldn't it? Just another piece to his internationalist agenda, I suppose.

When Western Europeans sacked Constantinople during the Fourth Crusade, they did so at the prodding of a pretender to the Imperial Throne, who needed outside help to usurp power. Similarly, the Turks were able to penetrate Asia Minor and eventually sack the Great City and bring the Great Empire crashing down because traitorous scum sought to enlist their aid in amassing power (this is one of many examples I used to know in greater detail).

The Democrats are, for the sake of winning an election, willing to sell their nation out to internationalist forces. Imagine, outside observers will be monitoring a US election. Since when did America become a banana republic? Since when did the US need its hand held during an election? We might as well concede our sovereignty now, since truly sovereign countries manage their own internal affairs without external meddling.

What happens if the next election is very close? Would the Democrats prefer it if some non-American body picked our next president? They continue to complain about the US Supreme Court "selecting" President Bush (nonsense, all of it), but I have a feeling they wouldn't be at all upset if the OSCE were to install Senator Kerry.

It looks like some Democrats would do anything for power. However, as they continue to debase America, will they ever realize that their actions are self-defeating? They may achieve power thanks to their machinations, but will the USA still be a country worth leading?
