“Addressing U.S. critics of the treaty, the former senator said fears that it would undermine Americans’ constitutional right to keep and bear arms are not grounded in reality.”

As far as numbskulls like this guy are concerned, the Constitution doesn’t exist and reality is subjective, so this hot gas doesn’t mean a whole lot.

The irony.

The nerve.

<....”can a different Senate body suddenly ratify an older Treaty and have it take the force of law?”....>

Yes I would think so.... Many laws and treaties have been changed when the Senate moves to a majority of one or the other parties...but it depends on who makes it their priority and presents the changes....or enforcement of...or for that matter, resurrection of what was the “drop dead” time period.

Yesterday, President Barack Obama SIGNED the U.N. gun ban treaty.

You know what this means. Now Obama and the U.N. are one BIG step closer to wiping out our Second Amendment freedom, our national sovereignty, and our American rule of law...once and for all.

Only you and I can stop Obama and the U.N., but we have to act NOW.

Please sign NRA-ILA’s Emergency Petition to the U.S. Senate as soon as you can.

Only the Senate can ratify treaties, so it’s up to you and me to convince an overwhelming majority of U.S. Senators to vote NO on the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty. And we have to do it RIGHT NOW.

We need to line the halls of the Senate with boxes and boxes of these petitions. We need to make it clear to every Senator if they team up with Obama and the U.N. to destroy our gun rights — there will be a heavy political price to be paid at election time.

That’s why every petition counts, starting with YOURS.

So please, sign your petition TODAY.

And after you sign your petition, I need you to make a much-needed contribution to NRA-ILA so we can make certain that U.N. bureaucrats never get the chance to trample our constitutional Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

With your help now, NRA-ILA can launch a BLISTERING ad campaign that exposes Obama’s treachery. We can blanket the Senate with hundreds of thousands of these petitions. We can put every critical NRA-ILA campaign tool to work and stop this dangerous treaty before it becomes the law of the land.

But we can’t do ANY of it without a generous commitment from you TODAY.
