	Treaty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Treaties are called by several names: treaties, international agreements, protocols, covenants, conventions, exchanges of letters, exchanges of notes, etc. Regardless of the name chosen, all of these international agreements under international law are equally treaties and the rules are the same.
		Treaties can be loosely compared to contracts: both are means of willing parties assuming obligations among themselves, and a party to either that fails to live up to their obligations can be held liable under international law for that breach.
		Treaties may be seen as 'self-executing', in that merely becoming a party puts the treaty and all of its obligations in action.

	International Law
		Each of these treaties has established a committee of experts to monitor implementation of the treaty provisions by its States parties.

		According to the US Constitution these international treaties are part of the "supreme Law of the Land".
		Because Bush violated International Laws that we agreed to by treaty, then he is also violating the supreme Law of the Land which is an impeachable offense.
