Re: UN Arms Treaty
The U.S. Senate must consent to any treaty entered into by the Executive. And that consent must be in the form of a 2/3 majority vote before ratification can take place. There isn't a snowballs chance in a furnace, that the ATT would ever clear the Senate. Mr. Obama and Mr. Kerry are playing to a foreign audience they feel is more important and influential than the American people. All the while knowing that Senate consent was a dead letter. This will play out just like Kyoto, a rejected treaty used by the Socialist masquerading as President, and his minions, to hammer his political opponents.

Re: UN Arms Treaty
I have read it is Two Thirds of the Senate present not the full 2/3. Let's hope all our Republican senators have good attendance.
