First off, it's a DRAFT. That's what you put on the table BEFORE negotiations. I don't need to read the damn thing because I'm not going to be negotiating it. I voted for people I pay to do that for me. Thank you.

Secondly, IF it is signed by the President, it must be radified by the Senate. THat's a big hurdle - less so, I suppose if the Republicans had control over the White House and the Senate, but thankfully, they don't so you can relax. The real crazies aren't in control right now.

Before you go off on some birther paranoid fugue state, please keep in mind that we managed to get past George W. Bush evicerating Habeas Corpus - which was one of the rights that 'we" got from King John in the 12th century. I think we can trust that what we might sign onto will be a lot less dangerous than the fantasies of Rupert Murdock's Wall Street Journal.

Geesh. Maybe we should be putting anti-psychotic meds in the water!
