The Senate should take it up immediately and erase it.

Documentation File on the harmful impact of the Counterculture of Obamanation on America.

IMHO, the Counterculture of Obamanation will continue to destroy America for as long as the Congressional RINOs allow it to, and not one minute more - - - - .

I agree but the way the last paragraph reads they can't erase it. This Senate will not ratify it but after Obama signs it it remains for any future Senate to ratify unless a future president withdraws it.

Anyway, that's the way I interpret it.

Only 53 Senators oppose this thing from the UN, so we’re going to need to watch them every second. You interpret correctly.

To: jazusamo; All
Patriots who actually study the Constitution and its history can tell you the following about constitutional limits on the power of the Senate and Oval Office to negotiate treaties. Regardless that the uninitiated fear treaties as a back door for Congress and the Oval Office to force US citizens to comply with foreign/international laws based on powers which the states have never delegated to Congress via the Constitution, the Supreme Court has already clarified that treaties must respect constitutonal limits on federal government powers.
"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 reason that DC lawmakers are not being impeached for trying to use UN to steal our gun righs is that the lawmakers who can impeach need to be impeached themselves imo.

That is the only real solution. US out of UN and UN out of US.

This but one more in a string of outrages perpetrated by a collection of degenerate socialist western European States, a cabal of third world thug dictatorships and a mob of Islamic sheikdoms.

How many times has a US president backed a UN resolution that is unconstitutional?

I believe you’re misquoting the president. What he said was, “I want to fundamentally screw America.”

Never mind; it’s an easy mistake to make.
