I was surprised that Justice Stevens voted correctly. A rare moment of intelligence by a Liberal Justice. Hopefully, this case will lead to the overruling of Holland v. Missouri (which allows the Congress to expand its authority via treaties). The Justices have ruled that the President can't circumvent the Constitution via a treaty. Now the Court should apply the same ruling to the Congress (and itself).

“The Justices have ruled that the President can’t circumvent the Constitution via a treaty.”

This ruling needs to be applied to Clinton’s illegal actions.

In 1994, the senate rejected the biodiversity treaty. Clinton said he would work around the senate and enforce it. In 1995, he organized the president’s Council on Sustainable Development to do that. He ordered Secretary Brown to implement the rejected treaty via bureaucratic decrees while he signed presidential directives to move this UN crap forward.

So now we have unelected fascist bureaucrats enforcing a treaty rejected by the senate. And no one does a damn thing about it.

Clearly, the witch hillary is the most dangerous of the bunch. The fascist bureaucrats are waiting for her to get in so they can run around rural America again sticking guns in people’s faces, stealing property and shutting down businesses. This Marxist freak hillary will instigate and cause a civil war in this country.
