"Senate + President + Treaty Power = Changes to the Bill of Rights"



I have written before on the danger to religious freedom, practice and assembly as well as other limitations on the power of the federal government that can occur through the use of the Treaty power to amend the Constitution circumventing the normal amendment process involving the States.
 
In this last election with an increase in the number of Liberal Senators expect that we will see treaties that will both seek to cede US Sovereignty to International Organizations and Tribunals of Unelected technocrats who are not answerable directly to any electorate.  There may be treaties that trim the right of people to "criticize" another's religion, meaning the end to telling people why their religions are false.  They may be treaties that through the "universal human (not God given) rights of all persons" forcing homosexual marriage even on churches.  There may be international treaties that severely curtail second amendment rights of the "teeth of liberty."  It is extremely important that Conservative Senators hold their ground to prevent a 2/3rds majority from making these kind of changes forcing it down our throats in the dead of night.
