    and you wonder why people insult you.....

    but you know i am right ... you are defending the very treaties that are going to destroy the constituion and the nation it was founded upon....for if i was wrong you would not resort to insults.....

    you are wrong AND you are a moron. I am not defending ANY treaties. I am defending the constitution. If we no longer wish to abide by the terms of a treaty, we have a relatively simply procedure by which we abrogate it and announce to the other signatories that we are OUT. By following the constitution, we announce to the world that our word means something. Our founding fathers understood the importance of that and, therefore, included Art. VI(2) in the constitution. I took an oath to support and defend the constitution. I took that seriously. those who would piss on the constitution are nothing less than domestic enemies thereof. period.

    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, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding.

    Because douchebag while we wait for the government to get off its collective ass and nullify the treaty who knows how many lives will be lost or information ungained, you really aren't this stupid, are you?

    The constitution and treaties are not suicide pacts.

    your reading of the constitution is bass-ackwards. treaties are the supreme law of the land notwithstanding anything in the constitution or any laws of any states to the contrary..

    again...if you have a problem with a treaty, why not simply abrogate it, rather than sending a message to the world that our word is not to be trusted?

    no one has ever suggested that we blindly follow any treaty that will result in our demise. DOn't like it? abrogate it. Until then, it remains the supreme law of the land and those who would advocate ignoring it piss on the constitution. That is fact.

    i thought you had dismissed me as a moron......

    i would abrogate all treaties .... but i am not king.....

    i say you are pissing on the constitution by defending a treaty that will destroy the constituion and the nation founded by it....
