Obama May Place U.S. Under International Criminal Court

I knew it. I just knew this would happen. Clinton signed the ICC treaty in the late 1990's, but the majority Republican senate refused to ratify the treaty. One of the first things President Bush did after his January 20, 2001 inauguration was to REVOKE CLINTON'S SIGNATURE. President Bush removed the U.S. as a signatory to the ICC treaty.

However, anyone who understands that Obama is an avowed Marxist, and that the current Congress is loaded with far Left Dems, could see this coming a mile away.

Elections have consequences. Conservatives must learn to play the game of politics effectively, starting with the fact that you never, ever, EVER win by losing.

In a nutshell, here's Obama's message:

[illiac]

Foreign born, non-citizen President.........giving America away.....

[SeminoleSoldier]

Given the ground situation that would be a joke. African militaries are pathetic, with the exception of the Egyptians and some ‘Arab’ units in North Africa.
However American soldiers have served under foreign commanders before in the world wars.

When Average Americans start going up in front of the ICC for hate-crimes like DARING to speak against the gay lifestyle, standing against Obamaunism, etc,etc, many Americans will begin to realize what they have done.

But, just like many Germans learned, it will be too late to do ANYTHING about it.

[Maceman]

I do not think that would be constitutional.

Yeah, well, I didn't think McCain-Feingold was constitutional either.

[KittenClaws]

constitutional means only what the current members of the supreme court want it to mean. I have no confidence that 5 of the current court members are even literate. They will sign off on this just as soon as it gets to them.

I must disagree.

The Constitution means what We The People say it means.

The Constitution belongs to us, not to the courts, the feds, the congress or any other usurper.

[Las Vegas Ron]

The constitution can be amended amigo

Never happen with this, no way

[Wolfstar]

Placing American citizens under foreign criminal jurisdiction is a violation of the 11th Amendment isn’t? Please advise.

If a President signs a treaty, and if the senate ratifies it, then that treaty becomes the law of our land.

United States Constitution, Article VI, 2nd paragraph
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.

[Wolfstar]

This has to be stopped. Period.

It would have to be stopped in the Senate. Good luck with that given the current makeup of the Senate.

[Tailgunner Joe]

The commander of the current UN mission in Sudan is from Nepal, a nation ruled by elected maoist communists.

[Wolfstar]

I do not think that would be constitutional.

Yes it would if the Senate ratified the treaty.

The constitution can be amended amigo

It doesn't need to be. Any treaty signed by a U.S. president that is ratified by the Senate becomes the law of the land. No disrespect to either of you, but the tragedy, as I see it, is that so many conservatives don't know the Constitution enough to understand this.

U.S. May Place Obama Under International Criminal Court

There. All better now.

[Wolfstar]

If this happens, I predict a mass exodus from the military.

And you think the Left cares about this?

[Tailgunner Joe]

The commander of the joint United Nations/African Union mission in Darfur is from Nigeria.

[HardStarboard]

The minute he does that, the International court will try to indite Bush and Cheney.

That will be worth a war!!

[UCFRoadWarrior]

Just more anti-American Globalism....first its Free Trade, then its surrender of more US soverignity.

I hole the Free Traders/Globalists responsible for this, and those in both parties. Free Trade was the first step in the surrender of American soverignity.

[veritas2002]

I heard Obama may declare us a monarchy

[Windflier]

The Constitution means what We The People say it means.

The Constitution belongs to us, not to the courts, the feds, the congress or any other usurper.

Thank you for saying that. It bears repeating.
