CJ this thread was about WORLD CRIMINAL COURT and them trying to bring up Bush on charges.
I just pointed out how stupid it was, that it was a chirade, a mocking of real law, and generally a sham.
Then you jumped in, so I tried to EDUCATE you on the concept of Jurisdiction, and how a world court interacts with the US Constitution.
I gave my part of my resume to try and explain that I am far from ignorant and closed minded about the world and foreign policy. Of course, maybe if I was as enlightened like you, I would have a better grasp on important geo-political issues.

The arguements about "jurisdiction" and "soverignty" are nothing more than a fraud and ruse used by conservatives - and maybe even believed by some of them. It's funny that all these people talking about the need for 21st century attitudes are adopting a late 19/early 20th century world view.
Participation in the World Court would be no different than membership in the United Nations or the obligations under any treaty.
