Obama says he won’t veto, because the deal was already falling apart, and now he can blame Congress, while stating, “it would have worked.”

Typical Communist blame shifting.

“A final deal, the group said, “must be subjected to the constitutional system of checks and balances that is the bedrock of our democracy.”

My understanding is that if Obama submitted a treaty that he wanted to do with Iran or anyone else, if the senate did not vote to approve it with a super majority, then no deal.

I am under the impression that now the senate must vote in a 2/3 majority to defeat any proposed treaty or it becomes law.

Furthermore, that vote to defeat a proposed treaty needs to pass a 60 vote test in order to proceed, so democrats could simply threaten to filibuster, and McConnell would surrender immediately as McConnell always does.

I hope I misunderstood, but such an agreement would explain why democrats support it and hwy Obama wants to sign it. And it would once again demonstrate not only a complete republican cave, but a rewriting of law to enable tyranny.

Someone tell me I misunderstood, please.

The vile traitor Corker sold us out again.

The man needs to be arrested for what he did today.

He must be blackmailed or owned by the Iranians himself.

He gave them the bomb and the freedom to destroy the Middle east.

Mark Levin EXPOSES how US Senate just GUTTED constitutional treaty power and GAVE IT TO OBAMA

Mark Levin exposes the treachery in the US Senate today, who he says just capitulated completely to Obama by gutting their own constitutional duty to approve treaties, giving it solely to Obama. So in short, Obama can make a treaty with the Islamo-Nazis in Iran without submitting it to the Senate and the Senate can only stop it if they can get enough nays to vote against it.

Levin explains below:
