Obama Agrees to Massive Stimulus Plan… For Iran.
Breitbart.com ^ | July 16, 2015 | Scot Vorse

On Tuesday, President Obama signed an agreement that equates to a $1,300 impact on every family in America — one of the largest stimulus packages in history.

The only problem is that this money is not going to help put food on the table of struggling Americans. In fact, quite the opposite. This money is the $150 billion signing bonus that the Obama administration is giving Iran as part of the nuclear deal. And what is worse, National Security Adviser Susan Rice said on Wednesday’s Situation Room on CNN, “We should expect” that some of the money Iran gets as a part of the nuclear deal “would go to the Iranian military and could potentially be used for the kinds of bad behavior that we have seen in the region.”

I can absorb this cost easily -- Obama saved me $2500 on my health insurance.

He did ... right???

Only Congress can appropriate the money.

The media is the worst enemy the USA has.

The fact that Susan Rice was as forthcoming as she was tells me our fundamental transformation is far enough along it doesn’t matter what we know, we can’t do anything about it anyway.

All the right people have been bought. All the patriots who could have thrown a wrench in the works have been purged.

Iran sends us terrorists, we send them money and let them have nukes. What a deal. They’re dancing in the streets saying “Death to America” as Obama and Kerry were high-fiving each other.

Hopefully those that supported Mitch, Jonbon and the lesser evils that stood silently or campaigned on working WITH Barry have the integrity to not complain.

They should however pay the bill.

That 150 billion gets leveraged so it is worth more to Iran than just face value.

Only Congress can appropriate the money.

And with strong leaders like Boehner and McConnell in charge, we can all rest safely.....

gotta make sure the IslamoNazis successfully complete their nuclear bomb ICBM attack arsenal

$150 Billion dollars is cheap if it achieves this!

Well, it’s only practical.

How in the world to we expect them to come up with the kind of money it takes to blow us up, if we don’t provide the money?!

To: dragonblustar; All
Note that Justice Joseph Story had indicated that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to appropriate taxes for foreign aid.
“If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).

Also consider that when the Democrat-controlled Congress scandalously passed the unconstitutional Stimulus Package and Obamacare bills that they essentially gave Obama a blank check to spend taxpayer dollars on anything that he wanted to.

In other words, the Democrats completely defeated the purpose of the “power of the purse” clause (1.7.1) which gives the House the power to defund unpopular federal spending programs like Obama’s stimulus plan for Iran, Obama now essentially financially independent of Congress.

The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, along with corrupt senators and a lawless president.

Explain exactly WHY we need to give the Iranians ANY money in this supposed “deal”?

This was no deal, it was a gift from the American people to those who will eventually use that money to do what they can to kill us.

Wow. I think I pay a fair amount of attention to keeping up with current events, but somehow I missed this.

Was this on the news and I was busy watching HGTV?

So, of course congress will start impeachment proceedings. Right?

Right?
