Reagan on LOST: "No national interest of the US can justify handing sovereign control of two-thirds of the Earth's surface over to the Third World."

Have the Bush Republicans ceased to be reliable custodians of American sovereignty? So it would seem.

Bush has signed on to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, or the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), which transfers jurisdiction over the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Arctic oceans and all the oil and mineral resources they contain to an International Seabed Authority. This second United Nations would be ceded eternal hegemony over two-thirds of the Earth.

In 1978, Ronald Reagan declared, "No national interest of the United States can justify handing sovereign control of two-thirds of the Earth's surface over to the Third World."
