Obama’s UN delegation tries to scrap parts of Universal Declaration of Human Rights

NEW YORK , February 27, 2014 ( C-FAM.org ) - Angry over not getting a same-sex-friendly definition of the family into a new UN document, the Obama Administration tried to delete language agreed upon by the founders of the UN and repeated in documents since then.
