My name's Morry and I'm a member of the RI Tea Party. I'm sending this on my own, not under the Tea Party organization's official authority. I think it's important. The letter below explains the URGENCY of this issue. Democracy and representative government as we know it may be overturned and abolished entirely within little over one month from today (Nov. 5 '09). This is not exaggeration. Read the letter from Dave Kistler below, and my comment after it.

URGENT!!!

My Friends:

Almost six weeks ago, I was made aware of the information I am about to share with you. On purpose, I have waited to mention this, until now, so that I could confirm all the details. Well, now I have my ducks in a row and am ready to report to you the following facts.

From December 7-18, a gathering will occur in Copenhagen, at which a treaty (over 200 pages in length) will be signed by many world leaders (including our president) under the guise of combating "global warming and climate change." In the text of the treaty, the words "world government" are used. If agreed on and signed as it is currently written, AMERICA WOULD SURRENDER HER SOVEREIGNTY to this global (one world) entity. This is NOT an overstatement!!! This is the reality of what WILL occur if this treaty is signed.

The United States Constitution requires all treaties be ratified by a 2/3 vote of the Senate. I ask you (for the sake of American sovereignty and freedom) to do four things. First, go to WWW.WEBCOMMENTARY.COM and read the details of this tragic and totally unnecessary treaty, which is designed to bring America to her knees. Second, please sign the "Instrument of Repudiation" in protest to this freedom denying "treaty." You may sign the "repudiation" by clicking on the document at the top right of the main page (at webcommentary.com). Third, please e-mail all freedom loving friends and family and ask them to read and sign this "repudiation" as well. Finally, please take the time to contact (via e-mail or phone) your legislators in Washington and FIRMLY tell them of your opposition to this attempt to give away our national sovereignty, asking your senators to reject this if it comes to them for a vote.

I realize your time is precious and you may think this to be an unnecessary act of protest. I can assure you that this is anything but unnecessary. If you want more information regarding this and its legitimacy, please visit Glenn Beck's website. Today, on Beck's T. V. show, former U. N. Ambassador John Bolton and a gentleman named Lord Christopher Monckton (former Science Adviser to British Prime Minister Margret Thatcher) spoke with great gravity about the diabolical nature of this surreptitious treaty.

Friends, we've enjoyed the benefits of freedom for our entire lives. Most of us have had to make no significant sacrifice for the freedoms we've enjoyed. Taking the time to read, sign, notify family and friends, and contact legislators is a small price to pay for freedom (past, present, and future). Feel free to contact me with questions you may have about this.

Your friend,

Further Note:
Treaties are the Supreme Law of the Land, on a par with the Constitution. The Constitution is a contract the Federal Government has with the Citizens. Treaties are contracts it makes with OTHER NATIONS. Our founding fathers never envisioned that there could be an overlap between these two separate areas -- domestic and foreign. They felt it was in the interest of the nation that our country's honesty and reliablity be of the highest caliber and reputation in the world, and that we live up to our word with other nations as well as with our nation's citizens. So. . . treaties were made sacrosanct. Who would ever sign a treaty with our new fledgling nation if they knew a fad opinion of the citizens could override it at any time? So... in order for our nation's promises to be credible if / as/ when our gov't ever signed a treaty, the founding fathers made treaties the highest law of the land, equal to the Constitution itself. The only difference is that they covered different areas: The Constitution governs the Federal Gov't's relationships with citizens, and treaties govern its relationships with foreign governments. Well. . .

The treaty Pres Obama has said he will sign creates a World Government. This will not consist of elected people, but of an ill-defined elite who will decide on their own what they feel like doing, and all the nations signing the treaty will then have agreed to obey their dictates. If this is approved by our government, then this body of a few men, without any democratic authority granted to them by anyone but themselves, will be able to pass laws and rules that our governement will then be obligated to obey. The treaty makes provisions for the ENFORCEMENT of this World Government's dictates.

Once passed, a treaty is virtually impossible to repeal. This one in particular, since it will essentially place in the hands of a few foreign people the power to run the USA as they see fit -- so before we know it, they could simply repeal even the the already-difficult mechanisms we have for withdrawing from a signed treaty.

Fortunately, it requires a 2/3 majority of the Senate to approve the treaty, and while this is not likely it is a possibility. HOWEVER, even if it is not approved by the Senate, THAT MAY NOT MATTER. The Administration's intent appears to be the same as the Law of the Sea treaty that Pres. Clinton signed, but which was never passed by the Senate. Our agencies like the Commerce Dept. simply pass regulations that comply with the treaty even though technically it has never been approved by the Senate and is not binding on the US according to the Constitution and US law. We have a regulatory branch of gov't which has slowly evolved over the decades to the point where it is effectively a 4th branch of gov't without any Consitutiional checks and balances on it. Still further, if the President signs the treaty, as it's virtually certain at the moment that he will, then he and Congress may simply decide that even if the Senate does not approve it, they will just take every separate individual ruling of the World Government and pass it domestically as a separate law. That way, they can effectively force the treaty's provisions on the country with a simple majority vote like all other laws.

The treaty itself is a thinly disguised attempt by other nations to plunder the wealth and success of the US. It's aim is to redistribute the wealth of the western nations to third world and other less-wealthy nations. It's ultimate aim is to equalize the globe's citizens, which would mean a devastating impoverishment of all US citizens via taxes and strictures imposed by the World Gov't.

Should the treaty fail to pass the Senate, which is likely but not guaranteed, and should our gov't then adopt the loophole for forcing the World Gov't's edicts on us anyway, then because that loophole involves the passage of "regular"-type laws, those laws MIGHT be repealable at a later date. However, it is much harder to repeal laws than to pass them, and furthermore, undoubtedly the attempt would be made to pass some laws which will dismantle the usual mechanisms we have available for repeal.

If this happens, it will mean a true, unvarnished, unequivocal, END to our Democratic Republic and our entire form of government. THIS is the "Fundamental Change" our President intended and told us he would give us, without explaining the details. Elections would no longer matter. The people would no longer have ANY VOICE WHATSOEVER in their government. Our lives would be entirely under the control of a foreign dictatorship made up of a few elite foreign rulers whose whims would become our laws AUTOMATICALLY, and leave American citizens with NO RECOURSE but to follow the rules or become criminals.

I urge every person who values is own life and freedom to sign the above petition at the website given in Mr. Kistler's letter. -- Morry Markovitz
