I may be misinformed here but can’t McConnell go nuclear and filibuster this thing.
Just the opposite, Turtle man needs to go nuclear and suspend the filibuster so the amendment can be passed with a simple majority. The Dems are able to block anything with 41 votes the way things stand now
Yes, he could. I don’t see why he won’t. If ever there were an issue that is vital to the country, this is it.
He can go nuclear and pass a resolution of disapproval with 51 votes, which at this point is meaningless anyway.
Last week he put up such a resolution and and Dems filibustered it. He could have stopped that filibuster by going nuclear but he is too much of a pussy.
What he and Boehner BOTH could still do is attach a rider to the upcoming budget bill saying, fine, we all agree on this budget, BUT we stipulate that the Iran deal does not go into effect until we see the whole deal, including secret agreements, until we get the right to unlimited inspections, until our hostages are released, and until Iran agrees to recognize Israel's right to exist.
But they won't do that because all they really want to do is put a meaningless bill like this one up so they can claim to have tried to disapprove the deal, etc. etc.
They think we are so f'ing stupid we will accept that horrific, ugly, deadly lie and, what's worse, they don't give a damn about Israel or even the security of the U.S.A.
They are trading our lives and especially our soldiers lives for a smokescreen. McConnell is an open enemy of our nation and its people.
No, Mitch is that guy from Aliens...... “Game over man, we’re screwed!”
I’m more of a fan of corporal Hicks. “I say we take off and nuke them from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.”
