The Obama administration is participating in a UN self-assessment survey of human rights in America.
The Bush administration would not participate in this human rights self-assessment. The three countries reviewing the US's self-assessement are the universal periodic review board members France, Japan and Cameroon.
Cameroon is one of 13 countries on the 47-member UN Human Rights Committee that are ranked “not free” by democracy watchdog Freedom House based on its political freedoms and civil liberties.
Also, Cameroon is one of 18 council members from the Organization of the Islamic Conference. This group, who Obama has agreed to allow to judge the US's human rights, has an agenda at the HRC characterized by a strong anti-Israel bias and attempts to outlaw religious “defamation.”
The Obama report for the UN review was put together by federal agencies and civil society organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union, NAACP, American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee and Human Rights First. These groups met between Jan. and April of this year and wanted to take the critique of the US further but were limited by the UN guidelines.
You have to read through the report to believe how racist and horrible the US really is in the eyes of these groups who put the report together. But according to the report, Obama has done what he can so far, and is doing all he can now and in the future to remedy America's wrongs.
It is all laid out in this document of self-assessment at our ongoing progress and failures to achieving human rights in America. The Progressive/socialist agenda complete with quotes by Progressive President Teddy Roosevelt and Eleanor, the controversial Universal Declaration of Human Rights, discussions on distribution of wealth, how discriminatin in housing caused the latest financial collapse, universal healthcare, immigration reform (not enforcing current laws), it goes on and on about our sins.
