It’s a treaty, not a deal, and as such is subject to the approval of Congress. Why is everyone letting the phony get away with calling it a deal?

That was my first reaction.

Beck just taints the whole message, the way I see it. Frankly, I don’t care what he thinks for what he (supposedly) stands for.

For me, Beck is the guy who when he is good -he’s really, really good, but when he’s bad -he’s horrible. I think 26 speakers is a bit much. How many more do they need? This might wear out the crowd having to listen to so many. It would me.

Because it’s not. It’s an executive agreement. The feckless Republican leadership could have demanded Obama submit a treaty, but didn’t.

Instead, we got Corker.

No one is forcing anyone to stay for the whole thing. Most will probably be given 5 minute time limits I would guess.

The rally in NYC on July 22nd had 24 speakers and lasted 3 hours.

As far as I’m concerned the more speakers they can get, the better. This is the final chance to mobilize against this treacherous capitulation before Congress votes.

Anything that commits the American people to constraints to another country is a treaty. To call it anything else is just semantics. It’s a way to shove this thing down our throats.

Well yes it is but the Congress has already said it is a trade deal not a treaty. I suppose Mitch could declare it a treaty but he worked so hard already to say it isn't, I would doubt he changes horses this late. They are so vile that they fixed is so they can look like they are against it for purposes of fooling the voters again.

I’m taking the Toby Kieth position: a little less talk, and a LOT more action.

The guy I want in the White House? Iran gets no bomb. EVER. Iran keeps trying; Iran gets a few of their “toys,” uh — shall we say — “broken.” Iran tries again? “Broken” develops a more intense manifestation. ANYBODY tries to help Iran? Yeah. You guessed it. Lots of breakage ALL over the place.

It’s how you treat a bully; you knock his lights out, break his sticks, whip his snotty ass, and send him crying home to mommy. Lather. Rinse. Repeat until effective.

People who do not, cannot, or will not understand this are NOT an asset to the free world; they are a profound liability, and the minimization of their influence in every sphere is elemental to the preservation of civilized society.

He just needs to tweet a link to a youtube video. It will drive the news cycle for a week. For free.

You are right! They make it look like they oppose it, knowing they will lose the vote.

Rep. Gohmert Introducing Resolution to Declare Iran Deal a Treaty

On March 11, 2015, Secretary of State John Kerry said the Obama administration was “not negotiating a legally binding plan” with Iran and therefore their nuclear agreement did not have to be submitted to Congress for approval. Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) is ready to challenge that notion by putting forward a resolution that would define the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action as a treaty.

The Corker-Cardin bill, a.k.a. the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015, was introduced as an accountability tool for the Iranian deal, requiring a 'yes' or 'no' vote from Congress. Yet, as more details about the Joint Comprehensive Plan Of Action (JCPOA) have surfaced, Corker and Cardin's effort has become basically null, Rep. Gohmert is convinced. The Obama administration, he asserts, left Congress in the dark about the specifics of JCPOA. For instance, the Corker-Cardin bill was only meant to rein in nuclear sanctions, but JCPOA allows for a lifting of sanctions on ballistic missiles and international arms embargoes. Congress also had no clue about the side deals allowing Iran to inspect itself at nuclear sites. 

In his resolution, Gohmert also exposes Secretary of State Kerry's hypocrisy regarding his refusing to label the Iran deal a treaty. 

Whereas, on June 4, 2015, less than two months before Secretary Kerry testified that it has become “physically impossible” for the Senate to ratify treaties, he stated that the State Department is “preparing the instruments of ratification of [several] important treaties” and that he “want[s] to personally thank the U.S. Congress . . . for their efforts on” the implementing legislation for the nuclear security treaties;

Gohmert is not the only legislator to demand the Iran agreement be defined as a treaty. Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), the only senator not to vote for the Corker-Cardin act, demanded the clarification be made back in May:

"A nuclear-arms agreement with any adversary—especially the terror-sponsoring, Islamist Iranian regime—should be submitted as a treaty and obtain a two-thirds majority vote in the Senate as required by the Constitution," he said.

Such a consequential handshake should be accompanied by some oversight from our elected representatives. It's what Americans want

Should the resolution pass, Gohmert says the Senate should deliberate on the ratification of the Iran Deal within 30 days hence.
