With just over a month left in office and no gun control achievements to speak of during his time in the White House, President Obama has sent the United Nation’s Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) to the Senate for one last shot at ratification.
The ATT garnered a lot of attention as it moved through various bureaucratic channels in 2012 and 2013. Breitbart News reported that the treaty was supported by 46 Senators, two of whom were Independents–Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Angus King (I-Maine)–and the rest of whom were Democrats. It was signed by Secretary of State John Kerry on September 25, 2013, but it is not binding because Republican Senators shot down ratification efforts.
At the time that Kerry signed the treaty the NRA warned, “This treaty threatens individual firearm ownership with an invasive registration scheme [and is full of regulations and requirements that are] blatant attacks on the constitutional rights of every law-abiding American.”
Between golfing and vacations, Obama finds enough time for one more failure before he leaves office.
Obama knows no bounds of ignorance or incompetence.
We really need to get the F*** out of the
UN. 8b$ a year of our tax money goes to
these scumbags.

If we can’t shoot at Obama’s sharia police who can?
Globaloney-ism writ large.
McConnell is prolly wringing his hands, weeping softly, that he can’t figure out some way to get it ratified.
Poor pitiful pearl.
He and Obola can “console” each other.

They always pull this crap around Christmastime, my #$%^#@# representatives better be there when it comes up for vote.
When my children were little, they would beg and beg and beg for what they wanted. Even with a clear and resounding “No”, they would continue to try to get what they wanted.
It will be so nice to have adults in charge rather than the children we have been dealing with for so long.
Yeah, but the children that are left will still be beggin’, only louder. MSM included.
Since Trump has Turtle’s wife on staff, I seriously doubt Turtle will do anything to cut off his own nads. I hope that pretty wife is not a beard.

That is all.
Now that the Kenyan fraud’s days are numbered,
will anyone stand up to him and state clearly “elections do matter and you’ve been thumped on all but 2 fraudulent ones, so STFU, quit lavishing the People’s money on yourself and your constructed ‘royal” family and GTFA” ??
Obama. Greatest gun salesman of all time.
