I think some here either 1) Like stirring the pot; 2) Aren't very smart about the constitution; 3)Are clueless about politicians desires to stay in power; 4) Like wrapping themselves in tin foil or 5) are multi-taskers and can do all five of the above...at the same time.

First of all...a treaty does NOT trump the constituion when it violates the constitution or the Bill of Rights. Second, it takes 67 votes. On WHAT PLANET are you on if you think they will get even 40 votes? Don't give me your list of RINO's. Give me a break. Go get more tinfoil.

These guys like power...and they know this would be the end of them. This is a Dick Morris Special. A "Hey Right Winger...Look at Me" number to get the most ignorant of the base stirred up into a frenzy.

Does The ONE want to take the guns away? Yep. Does he want this treaty signed and ratified? YEP!

As someone else said...and I'll rephrase: OH PLEASE OH PLEASE...OH PRETTY PLEASE WITH SUGAR ON TOP do this! PLEASE sign this and send it to the senate.

We'll hang it around O's neck like a millstone. It's a FATAL issue for him. LET HIM bring it up. LET HIM try. I HOPE he does.

When your enemy is making a mistake...DON'T STOP HIM.

“Second, it takes 67 votes. “

See my post #123 and let’s us know if 67 is actually required.

Right there is the core of the problem. Term limits, an end to exemptions from some laws, congressional pensions and special healthcare would be a good start. Change power to service, where it belongs.
