Beware of the Lame-Duck SessionThe globalists have been plotting to use the volatility of this lame-duck session to achieve some of their internationalist goals that they couldn't get passed during the last four years. In particular, they would like to lock us into treaties that slice out various parts of our national sovereignty, a concept that they have been trying to promote as obsolete. ... The globalists could make a surprise treaty push for ratification of the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty (UNATT). This treaty is coming under the radar since gun control advocates know it could never pass the U.S. Senate after debate in broad daylight.
Another plan to ratify an anti-sovereignty treaty and subject us to unwelcome global regulations is the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). This mischievous document was signed for the U.S. by U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice (now famous for giving big TV time to Obama's lies about the Benghazi disaster).
The globalists desperately want us to ratify the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST), which was a bad idea when Ronald Reagan rejected it in 1981, and which has soured rather than ripened in its years of languishing in the Senate. This treaty cedes sovereign control over practically all the riches at the bottom of the world's oceans to an International Seabed Authority.
After ratification, treaties become part of the "supreme law" of the United States on a par with federal statutes, which gives supremacist judges the power to invent their own interpretations. The whole concept of putting the United States in the noose of global organizations, in which the U.S. has only the same one vote as Cuba, is offensive to Americans, and all these UN treaties should be scrapped forthwith.

Schlafly must have read: "Six most paranoid fears for Obamas second term"
With the election only days away, the radical right is bracing for what it believes could be an Obamapocalpyse
One Thousand Years of Darkness - socialism or something much worse
An Obama Dictatorship - unleash adictatorial full monty; instant citizenship for all Third World immigrants; forced equalization of income; the end of fossil fuel production
Obama Will Take Away Our Gun Rights - Obamas first term was nothing but a conspiracy to ensure re-election by lulling gun owners to sleep.
U.S. Will Be Enslaved by Globalists - make the U.S. a vassal state to a globalist entity.
U.N. Troops and Civil War - Obamas going to send in U.N. troops
Hunted Down Like Dogs - If re-elected, its gonna be war; We will be hunted down like dogs.

treaties that seek to control the flow of small arms, through the US, into other countries.
IOW, we really need to lay the ground-work for the next opportunity, similar to Benghazi, for US troops to get themselves killed for ________________________________________ .
Rand Paul and the NRA have legislation like this in Congress now. I will update myself/us on it soon.
