From Article III:
"The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority"
From Article VI:
"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"

You aren't trying to insinutate that JUDGES are the ones who decide which treaties we are subject to are you? Congress votes on them, the President signs them, judges rule on wheather or not they violate the Constitution.
This judge tried to bypass the legislative and executive branches here. Impeach him, kick him out of the Bar, move on.

By the way, that would be Article 2, Sec 2, Para 2. Just incase you wanna try and get picky.
Art 2, sec 2, para 2
He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.

"From Article VI:
"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"" Are you suggesting that treaties must be followed even though they:
(1) have not been ratified and have no laws of enforcement or penalties have been passed by the Senate?
and (2) even if ratified, that they must be followed even though no laws of enforcement and penalties have been passed by the Senate?
In any case, (on a side issue) do you believe that the laws of treaties supersede the Constitution/Bill of Rights?

You're right, of course. I stand corrected.
