That issue is bad history at this point. bad history from both precedent of honoring our commitments toward our allies. our friends. and from the pitiful precedent set by us here in this body who have allowed our constitutional prerogatives to be encroached upon by an ever expanding executive branch. No. neither treaty termination. nor diplomatic recognition. nor revenue loss are in issue here. To me the issue is more basic. more individualistic. more personal. To me the .issue is human rights: Freedomfreedom of thought. freedom of conscience. freedom of emigration. in sum. freedom of political and social lifestyle. . Mr. President. it should be the right of any citizen. anywhere in this world. to choose the political philosophy by which his life will be governed.
