You might want to look at the circumstances surrounding the first AWB.

I didn't ask about a piece of legislation. The Democrats are known cheaters in that regard.

I asked whether they'd ever pulled any shenanigans on treaty ratification. Which, given the Constitutional ramifications, is a bit more serious.

I'm not aware that they've ever done so.

In any event, my entire point was that it takes a 2/3 majority of the Senate (voting) to ratify a treaty. Accordingly, the GOP should be able to defeat this abominable treaty, even if the Democrats cheat -- if they're paying attention.
