There is one difference: treaties can be broken, the Constitution cannot be (though people try).

Very true, PJ, although it's better to never allow a monstrosity like the ICC treaty to be ratified than to fight a rear guard action if it is.

President George W. Bush, to his everlasting credit, understood this. The Republican Congress of the late 1990's didn't ratified the thing after Clinton signed it. To avoid having later senates even consider it, President Bush revoked Clinton's signature. But as sure as night follows day, it was a lock that Obama and his Leftist crowd would bring it back up ASAP.
