NC GOP freaks out over scary word

And no, the word isn't vagina:

Rep. Glen Bradley tried to amend the bill to remove the word from the panel's mission. He said the term "sustainable" is government doublespeak, intended to "lull the public into complacency." Bradley warned his colleagues that "sustainability" is part of the UN's Agenda 21.

I bet if we used both those words together in a sentence, maybe like this: We should all work towards making vaginas a sustainable natural resource, Republican heads would explode like in that movie Scanners. Here are a few words from that "Evil" United Nations:

Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world,

Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people,

Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law,

Whereas it is essential to promote the development of friendly relations between nations,

Whereas the peoples of the United Nations have in the Charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person and in the equal rights of men and women and have determined to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom,

Whereas Member States have pledged themselves to achieve, in co-operation with the United Nations, the promotion of universal respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms

Yeah, they're just out of control, and we need to stop them before they bring peace and prosperity to all the peoples of the Earth.

Just to get it off my chest:

The amendment was narrowly defeated, 51-63, with most Republicans voting for it, along with Democrats Bill Faison and Dewey Hill.

Please tell me this is one of those political back-scratchy things, like "I'll vote for your crazy-ass amendment if you vote for my sweet potato resolution."

If not, then I'm even more confused than normal. Which is pretty confused, lately.

Agenda 21

...is not scary because it does not hide under the bed. It's there in plane sight for those who can see it. It is however much like the red pill from the matrix movie, once you recognize it, you never stop seeing it.
Democrats against Agenda 21,org is one of the biggest clarions out there.
I'm surprised you did not get any digs in on the state of Alabama as they banned it state wide. Gastonia and I believe Chatham just kicked out ICLEI
Orange county is a member of ICLEI which is the invasive arm of the policy, as is CH and Carrboro AND OWASA. ICLEI does the planning and the "nudging" to align US cities and counties into UN policies and has been guiding OC policy for years.
It's all there on their pages, including the light rail schemes.
Nothing scary, it just is.
Whether anyone wishes to see and understand it is another issue.

remember the outrage over CH TC voting themselves health Benefits? OC has been doing it for a while...

If this is from which they have to choose,

I don't see Orange County swinging right anytime soon.
