This is all being set up for a future GOP president to have to deal with. The Democrats have already got a strategy for pinning the whole thing on him.
Democrats are the party of treason.
Pass it on.
They now own whatever happens with Iran.
Everything.
Can you just imagine the uproar from Big Media if the Republicans tried anything like this?? If they cannot vote on the ‘agreement’ why ever would it go through? Without the Senate even voting?? Republican ‘leadership’ in DC is WORTHLESS!!
If all Republican senators vote AGAINST the Iran deal, that would be 54.
Add Chuck Schumer (NY) and Robert Menendex (NJ) among the Dems and you have 56. Who are the 3 other Democrats against the deal?

I no longer expect great feats of bravery from the likes of Mitch McConnell, if I ever did. He’s already thrown in the whole box of towels, just as what happened in the effort to defund Planned Parenthood.
WOW! Sure didn’t see that coming. LOL! Was there ever any doubt once john f’n kohn-heinz-kerry was on the move convincing “law makers”? Hey, even colon powell said it was a good deal and if that isn’t enough to make you change your mind, well, I don’t know what is. Maybe if we got an okay from the hildebeast.
Treaties require 2/3 approval by the Senate.
The GOPe capitulates again. It’s not just the Dems we are fighting.
And the GROPe is the Party of Surrender.
They literally changed the rules for this one specific treaty. It stunk then, and now we know why. I honestly don't think this would be found to be Constitutional if challenged. I don't think the Congress can vote away their job responsibilities.
No need to even veto it now. The measure of disapproval will never get to his desk.
So of course Joe Manchin now comes out and announces he is a “no”.
A Profile in Courage, NOT!
41 traitors that must be dealt with for their treason. 41 who took IAPAC money and who knows how much on the side through Soro’s mini-me
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

There is really a simple solution for this that fits well within the rules of the senate. One senator can raise a point of order stating that the treaty is, in fact, a “treaty”. Have whomever is in charge of the “rules” (can’t remember who that is right now), rule in favor of this motion. Then proceed with the bill as a treaty, which requires 2/3rd approval. Of course, none of this will happen because the GOPe has no spine or testicles. It’s a wonder they can dress themselves in the morning without consulting with Obama first.
That is 41 votes for the Iranian Proliferation Treaty, that is not a treaty because Obama says it is an “agreement”
Of course our “conservative” majority Senate agrees.
Now they,as usual can say, “it is not our fault, Send us money so we can stop Obama.”
After 0dungo's traitorous act of the Bergdahl trade, WHY SHOULD ANYONE TRUST HIM ON IRAN??? 0dungo is an agent of the Caliphate and he WANTS A NUCLEAR IRAN to conquer the middle east.

Yes they can and have before. Where do you think all those ‘rules’ that have the force of law from the EPA, IRS, HHS, etc come from. Congress makes very few laws anymore. Most edicts come from bureaucrats and bureaucracies. Unelected and unaccountable by the citizens. That is the main reason we are screwed.
