I understand that. You are preaching to the choir. Like I said, that is why I was arguing that point days ago.

But for that to happen we would have to have a President and a Congress that actually follows the law and reads all of bills they pass.

That might be asking for too much...

The problem is that Ted Cruz doesn't understand that point. He thinks he can ignore the Constitutional requirement of a 2/3 approval of the Senate and give the power to a simple majority of both houses.

That is dishonest. He has read the founding documents and the Federalist papers and he knows the history of the Treaty Clause. He probably has it memorized. But he is going along to get along because some supreme court ruled 100 years ago that the Constitution doesn't say what it says.

I had higher expectations of Ted Cruz. I thought he was different. Shame on me.
