We need to get a letter writing campaign to the White House going on this.

Legally, President Bush isn't allowed to do this. He's not allowed to make treaties that effect the internal laws of our nation.

What's next? This is no more a legal act it than it would be if President Bush promoted an international treaty banning private ownership of handguns.

Maybe not but - "The president is going to make a determination as to if and when he signs it... He's still reviewing it. It got up on his personal radar screen this past week, I've given him my pitch and he was quite supportive," he said.

Maybe it's just bad reporting, maybe Tommy doesn't understand that the POTUS isn't allowed to do this, but why try to understand when most people will believe it anyway?
