The strengthening of international initiatives is occurring at the expense of U.S. concerns. The White House's snubbing of Congress is part of a long, consistent pattern of attempting to implement unratified treaties by using various questionable contrivances such as executive orders. Unapproved treaties are all too frequently used as a blueprint for budget requests, policy determinations and federal standards for state and local lobbying efforts. Clearly, this is not the way the branches of government are supposed to operate according to the Constitution. But representative government does not seem to factor into the current administration's policy equation.
Misplaced outrage is a function of a distorted reality.
The American people must be informed of the serious and pervasive consequences of these kinds of unconstitutional efforts. Yes, outrage can be returned to its proper place, but it will only be delivered to its destination through the vehicle of truth.
