Obama To Sign UN Gay Rights Declaration

According to Townhall dot com and the Associated Press, the Obama Administration will be signing a U.N. declaration previously rejected by the Bush Administration. The declaration calls for the worldwide decriminalization of homosexuality, and may lead to the criminalization of any denunciation of the homosexual lifestyle.

Gay rights groups criticized the Bush administration when it refused to sign the declaration. George W. Bush voiced concerns that the issue falls under state jurisdiction, and that the federal government has no Constitutional jurisdiction over the matter.
