The Schumeister is not lifting a finger to scuttle the agreement.
I'm always suspicious of Schumer's motives, but he cares more for the survival of the Jews in Israel than he does for the short-term political objectives of the Obama administration.
I hope the authors are right about the long-term damage to the Democrats from the agreement...which pales in comparison to the long-term damage to Iran's enemies once it can deliver its nukes to targets.
The 'Rats are going to H377.
Actually African-Americans have good reason to fear that the Obama/Kerry/Clinton iran nuclear agreement will pass by virtue of Obama’s veto!!! Iranians are not Arabs......but they are Persians. And......Persians....putting it mildly have absolutely no use for any Christians, especially African & African-American Chrstians!!! You folks figure out the rest!!! The handwriting is on the wall for all to see and understand. POTUS, Obama, once again has thrown African-Americans under the bus!!! poor sould cannot see the forest for the trees!!!
Schmucky ain’t saving anything except his precious NY senate seat. Its only the anger from his jewish constituents that’s made his decision. Otherwise he would kiss Bammy’s butt as usual.
Nonetheless, Schumer’s vote isn’t needed so it’s appropriately “Kabuki”.
There might be some worry for Schumer that opposing Obama will hurt him with “black” voters. Can’t see it myself but he, no doubt, keeps a close eye on that aspect.
I think Pat and Doug are dreaming.
The anti-Semites are no longer afraid to proudly stand tall in the Democrat Party. These Jew Haters likewise hate Christianity, and they’re gaining strength in the party of slavery, segregation and submission to central planning.
Liberal fascists hate the Judeo-Christian world view. With a passion.
Pollutico doing its part to send a message to Schmuckie to save the RAT party.
I called one of Schumer’s offices and explained why I thought if the deal with Iran went through, NYC would get wiped. The staffer who answered the phone was cordial and receptive. I expressed my appreciation for Schumer’s stand.
The staffer for Manchin, one of my senators, was anything but cordial.
...The GOPee are for the deal...
Another reason why Trump is growing.
And, the GOPe, its candidates, liberals, pundits, the MSM,
much of Fox, and 5 or so regular detractors posting here
haven’t a clue why.
...for the glory of communism?
“Schmucky ain’t saving anything except his precious NY senate seat. Its only the anger from his jewish constituents that’s made his decision. Otherwise he would kiss Bammy’s butt as usual.”
If he doesn’t stop this thing he isn’t going to have a senate seat or constituents . You have to be just plain stupid to think if Iran has a bomb that they will not choose the same exact targets that the 9/11 attackers did .
Iran is not shopping for long range missiles to nuke Israel . To nuke Israel they DO NOT NEED long range anything .
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that if you want to cost the most financial devastation in America you attack NYC and you kill the markets and you hit DC to cause more chaos .
Please stop calling Obama incompetent; you only give him a pass.
OK, you are right.
Red, I totally agree with you. I've said that also for sometime now and have been told by the idjits that I'm being racist.
I'm still surprised at the number of people do NOT SEE the "INTENTIONAL" aspect of his actions.
We have a Muslim presidink running interference for his Muslim brothers globally, while he directly dismantles the America we LOVE.
It can't be anything but INTENTIONAL.
We must remember the lessons of Clintonian triangulation.
Schemer may be strident and angrily against this until the last moment, when he will suddenly see the light, or recognize some previously unspoken nuance, and thus come around to Obama’s way.
If this scenario comes to pass, make no mistake: There is no change on Schumer’s part, and no arm twisting from Obama. This was always the way it was meant to play out.
Then it will be ok for all Democrats to fall in line.
Not saying it’s going to happen this way, but be ready for it.
Absolutely.
1) Ask the chair to rule whether the agreement, and how Obama has presented it, fits the standards set forth in the Corker bill or is instead really a Treaty requiring 2/3 of Senators but none of the House.
2) If Biden holds the chair and rules "Corker, not Treaty" or if some GOPe holds it and is willing to so rule, then appeal that ruling to the Senate as a whole. If 51 vote the agreement is really a treaty (a 50-50 tie would be broken against us by Biden) then they should next move for an immediate vote on this Treaty and vote it down. At that point you have Obama saying its an executive agreement and the Senate saying its a treaty GIven that ratifying Treaties is purely a Senate power and that former Senator Dungheap (D-IAI) got then Chief Justice Renhquist to rule during Clinton's impeachment "trial" that the Senate was solely responsible for its own procedures we should be able to win, or at least long delay the dispute in the courts. Burn Obama's clock, not ours. The only question is whether enough enough RINOs and allegedly pro-Isreal Rats would go along to reach 51 votes. At worst it better delineates their true status, a Cruzian technique. At best the GOPe would recognize it as a way to let Corker save face, pretending the now excessively unpopular agreement was not what he'd envisioned originally.
The way things are going that might not be such a bad thing. <ba dum tshssshhh>
