According to a guest on Hewitt's program yesterday, the Republican strategy must be to not fool with Senate rules especially regarding the fillibuster so that if we get a Republican president in 2016 and if a Republican-led Senate is preserved, then maybe/perhaps Senate Democrats will be "more inclined to work with the new president".

This is what GOPEs and RINOs really, truly, unquestionnably believe is "clear thinking" and a "well-developed strategic plan".

This guest -- I'm sorry I don't know who it was, he was on in the third hour -- is that Boehner must find a judge who will quickly issue a TRO to block release of Iran's billions ... that this is the only thing Congress can do now to "stop obama" and to "stop this 'deal'". ("Quickly" being the operative word because if the TRO is not issued say, for six months to a year, the billions will have already been returned to Iran.

This is what conservatives (and people who love America) get from electing Republicans and from Republican "leadership"!

You got that right.

The Republican Party is rotten to the core. And people cling to it because “they’re not Democrats”.

A new party must be created - immediately - and the Uniparty Menace must be destroyed. Many politicians are traitors to this country, they need to be charged, convicted, and punished.

No. He is smart. So smart he got truly stupid people to elect him by giving them what they wanted. Liberalism.

He DID tell them he and Jonbon would work with Barry BEFORE the election after all. They THEN supported and elected him to do that. I mean they would REALLY have to be utter morons to have that happen and stilllllll vote for him NOT wanting what he promised them dont’cha think?

They are forgetting they have CONSTITUENTS again! The majority of those constituents argue against “the deal”. Thus “We” I.e. The People, didn’t win anything!

Its not about you, McConnell, its about all of us! Got it?

Well generally you wait another few years, ignore morons telling you to elect people like him and vote for conservatives. Works every time it’s tried.

We won the argument. But no matter what, Iran won $100+ billion dollars.

McConnell, make your argument to the Iran-backed terrorist with the muzzle of a rifle in your face.

The House conservatives actually DID win.

“Karoun Demirjian @karoun
House’s motion to approve of the Iran deal fails (as expected): 162 to 269. One R (Massie) voted “present.””

Great strategy.
Obama got no treaty through the Senate and no law through the House. Anything that requires more than executive authority is illegal.
He doesn’t care but the companies that paid for the lifting of sanctions do.

I don’t think there’s ten members of Congress who aren’t deserving of prison.

Maybe. Closer to 5 IMO. 10 if one was real forgiving.

************
I suggested this yesterday...but got slammed. I’m not a lawyer, but I KNOW that if one party to a contract doesn’t perform a requisite contractual act, the other party can seek IMMEDIATE injunctive relief. Or- in the case of a public official, a Writ of Mandamus demanding that he fulfill the official’s duty.

Pr Obama has to produce the secret agreements, take him to court and make him produce them.

Not true. The GOPe was for the treaty. Else, there would have been no Corker amendment
