Rotsa ruck with enforcement.
So, he signs this treaty without Senate ratification?? Our Senate has to ratify treaties. He can sign all day but that is not US law! It is meaningless. Obama sucks! There, I said it!
I posted this on another thread, but it bears repeating:
This is chilling, however, not unexpected. Zero and his kronies are in place to turn the US into a third world country AND there is nothing we can do because zero already has his instructions to sign it. What will follow this is 1.) Martial law will be declared; 2.) Riots will ensure; 3.) UN forces will be brought into the US and dissenters will be silenced forever. I can assure you that this will be broadcast on MSM. The likes of MSNBC, CNN, CBS, ABC, etc. will be rewarded by having their names changed to UN media 1,2,3 and so on. The reports of these stations are going to wake up too late and wonder what the hell happened.
Zero is a fraud and a traitor to the US Constitution!
So, to answer your questions, many of us will NOT survive.
You’re right about the Senate having to ratify it. If this doesn’t get people worked up, nothing will.
I am afraid you are dreaming we are still in a democratic societey...not anymore. This is fascism and Obama can sign anything he wants as long as nobody opposes him in Congress. Period. That WILL happen unless we wake up..

He says “And no other subsequent government can take it back”.
Uh, I beg to differ. No one had ever broken free of their government before the United States of America and I guarandamntee that it can be done again.
Brzezinski and Soros. Washington Post says it’s Bilderberg
According to Reid v. Covert (1957), the treaty power cannot amend the Constitution. That is, despite the strong language of the Supremacy Clause, the only authority that a treaty can have is an authority already delegated to the government that makes the treaty.
Since our sovereignty is diffused among 280 million people, it cannot be impaired, much less ceded, by the government at Washington.
But that doesn't mean they won't try.
To have a civil war (a real one, with tanks, planes, and armies), you have to split the Armed Forces. To do that, you need a scenario where reasonable and patriotic officers can reach different conclusions about the same facts.
Therefore, certain officers could, in good conscience, conclude that the orders of the Commander-in-Chief to execute certain treaty powers SHOULD be obeyed, because of the supremacy clause, while other equally good officers could reach the opposite conclusion.
To make matters worse, I seriously doubt that there are 5 votes on the present Supreme Court to uphold Reid v. Covert.
Think who is in charge I don’t think it is impossible with this administration.
BUMP!
Jericho? Who knows I think they will definitely try to do it though.
He has his 60 senators that will rubberstamp it.
If you think the Senate won’t sign, you’re smoking something.
Takes 2/3 (67) to ratify a treaty.
Yes, you are correct in stating that the US Senate must ratify a treaty in order for the treaty to be valid. However, what is missing from your statement is that treaties and any legislation that is repugnant to the US Constitution is VOID.
The US Constitution is the "Supreme Law of the Land"; and, with the exception of an amendment, nothing can modify any of the provisions therein.
If anyone should be so shortsighted as to try an end run around the US Constitution, they will be met by a group of citizens who will set them straight.
