Nah.
I’m tired of the same crap coming up over and over and having to call these useless bastards and tell them not to stomp all over my rights.
If they do it, they do it.
I’m just going to respectfully disagree and go on about my business. I’m mean, what’s the worst that could happen?
Is Joe Leiberman going to be disappointed with me and tell me that I need to do better? Is he going to flash his upper teeth at me?
I’m tired of playing this game.
America`s Sword is mightier than Obummer`s pen.
So what? Clinton signed the Kyoto Protocols. The Senate refused to ratify it, and even voted 95-0 for a resolution opposing its key tenets.
Won’t ever make it through the Senate.
I’m busy with other stuff.
Thatz one thing he can sign and I could care less.
i know this regieme craps all over the Constutution so i guess suggesting that nothing can happen because ALL treaties have to be passed in the senate would be insulting to fellow freepers. maybe all of us should just ignore amy law we don’t like and use “well the president does it all the time” as an explanation.
means nothing without
2/3rds of the Senate.
While all treaties require ratification be the senate...which is unlikely....
Oboingo may attempt an end run around that obvious impediment
via Executive Order. Such an order implementing the treaty would NOT
be constitutional but the executive branch controls all the guns....thus
they can pretty much do whatever they want with impunity. He evil
antics of Holder and the Just Us department is an obvious bellweather
if how this administration does as it wishes without regard to the rule of
law.
More specifically, first note that the writings of Thomas Jefferson indicate that concern that the federal government might use its power to negotiate treaties to rob our constitutional protections is nothing new. In fact, based on his experience as vice president and therefore president of the Senate, Jefferson had officially clarified the limits of federal government power to negotiate treaties.
"In giving to the President and Senate a power to make treaties, the Constitution meant only to authorize them to carry into effect, by way of treaty, any powers they might constitutionally exercise." --Thomas Jefferson: The Anas, 1793."Surely the President and Senate cannot do by treaty what the whole government is interdicted from doing in any way." --Thomas Jefferson: Parliamentary Manual, 1812.
Next, reflecting on Jefferson's expert understanding of federal power to negotiate treaties, the Supreme Court has officially clarified the following. Essentially the feds cannot use treaties as a back door to force US citizens to comply with foreign laws based on powers which the states have never delegated to Congress via the Constitution.
"2. Insofar as Art. 2(11) of the Uniform Code of Military Justice provides for the military trial of civilian dependents accompanying the armed forces in foreign countries, it cannot be sustained as legislation which is "necessary and proper" to carry out obligations of the United States under international agreements made with those countries, since no agreement with a foreign nation can confer on Congress or any other branch of the Government power which is free from the restraints of the Constitution (emphasis added)." --Reid v. Covert, 1956.
The U.S. news media will completely hide this treason by Obama from the American people. expect more doses of Angelina Jolie, OJ, sports, Hollywood bs, etc. .How many Americans even know about this UN arms treaty? I bet less than 5% of Americans do.
How can we win with the media misinforming people?
The media is also hiding the Amnesty bill they are trying to sneak through congress.
Several on this site berated me for pointing out the last Jolie distraction ( that Jolie planned at the time the IRS scandal breaking). several on this site that posted those Jolie articles HERE also berated me
No President can bind us to any Treaty. Requires 67 vote Super Majority of Senate. Will never happen with 2014 election coming on like a freight train.
This is just another in the long line of fakeroo ‘sky is falling’ scare tactics nobama loves to crank up conservatives with.
