Almost any airplane can be made into a tanker. The US has done it with the S-3, A-3, A-6, F-18, and others.

I don’t get the notion of Obama vetoing a straight up Senate majority vote against accepting this treaty. How did this pile of crap get to be something other than a treaty?

After the Dems lost Congress in 2010, they pretty much disregarded the "legislative process".

When you have the MSM as an enthusiastic co-conspirator, the approach works quite well.

Ah, you’re right. A 2/3 majority is necessary to ratify a treaty. I was thinking (incorrectly :-)) that ratification required a simple majority. Anyway, my question is how has this crap become something other than a treaty? Has some Republican leadership complicity contributed to the scheme’s strange status? Will Republican Senate leadership with guts be required to make this right? (Hmm, that’s not a pleasant train of thought.)

Granted. Almost anything goes. And I believe Obama has muttered something to the effect that this is not a treaty. I still don’t see what particular chicanery makes this fly.

I think you’ll probably be able to get a seat in HELL near near Adolph, Josef, Pol and Mao. Enjoy it. Maybe you can get a few answers for your assinine questions. In the meantime, eternity is a LONG time asshole, and it will be HOT where you’re going.
