Obama has no power to conclude any agreement with Iran without the advice and consent of the Senate.
And when he concludes his phony "agreement", McConnell just has to bring it up for a vote.
I believe you are right. Israel knows that the U.S. has abandoned her (at least our leader has) and the Russians are arming Iran with missiles. I don’t think Israel can hold off attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities much longer.
Why do these morons insist on writing new laws to follow an existing law?
The President cannot make ‘deals’ with other countries, he makes TREATIES.
No matter what Obama wants to call it, call it a treaty and vote on it.
Watched Corker on SlimeBall with Mathews last night and everything Corker said made sense and went against SlimeBall SOP.
It was interesting to note Corkers name,title or party was not bannered under the videos as is always done.
When he was finished SlimeBall host thanked him with out stating his party.
What are the Dems afraid of...common sense rubbing of on the sheeple?
If pointing out how ignorant and naive I am floats your boat - by all means, carry on. As far as weakening the bill, I suppose that will be determined in the markup scheduled for this afternoon?
It will be ignored
So when is Congress going to impeach Dear Leader for violating American law, ruling by fiat, and ignoring the Constitution?
Why do we have to go through this absurd Kabuki Dance pretending we can rein this dictator in with another law when what is going on here is as plain as the nose on our face?
“But very serious trouble is brewing, especially abroad. Our foreign adversaries know this timetable too and will take full advantage of it. Things are going to get very ugly IMO.”
Yes, and Israel may be on the Iranians “to do” list before Barky is gone! I wouldn’t take a bet that Israel will not act within that timeframe if their intelligence says that the Iran deal stops nothing!
Is this a plan by McConnell to turn the Senate’s 2/3 veto into requiring a majority and a bill that Democrats can filibuster? Why is anything at all happening? The only thing that should be going on is the Senate introducing Obama’s agreement with Iran as a “treaty” and voting it down, and sending a letter to Obama (with cc to Iran) that the treaty is not approved by the US.
You can't handle the truth. How many times must we be disappointed before we understand how the politicians manipulate us? They say one thing and do another.
As far as weakening the bill, I suppose that will be determined in the markup scheduled for this afternoon?
No, it will be done behind the scenes by the staffers. The specific language will hide the deception that is being foisted on us. It will be interesting to see if any senator will openly reveal what is going on. The Dems will support Obama no matter what happens. And the RINOs will as well. Every word of what passes must be scrutinized carefully. Therein lies the deception.
