I posted an earlier wiki link:

I was on snopes a few days ago and found this:

It also affirms that the Constitution overrides treaties.

Hoi Polloi wrote:One scary thing is that several SCOTUS quotes I've read say that they take international treaties and laws into account when deciding the constitutionality of decisions before them.

I remember that too, don't remember who said it.

If I recall correctly, Scalia had a few scathing public remarks over that.

This has always scared me too. I found this:

The finding of the Court being that the Constitution is SUPREME to any treaty.

WHEW!! Load off my mind.
