Posted on 07/14/2015 5:07:25 AM PDT by McGruff

President Barack Obama heralded a historic nuclear agreement with Iran Tuesday as an opportunity for the longtime foes to move in a "new direction," while sharply warning Congress that it would be irresponsible to block the accord.

"No deal means a greater chance of more war in the Middle East," Obama said in early morning remarks from the White House.

Congress has 60 days to assess the accord and decide whether to pursue legislation imposing new sanctions on Iran or prevent Obama from suspending existing ones. The president renewed his vow to veto any such legislation

Because of scum traitor McConnell, only 34 Senators
are needed to support the Tyrant’s veto.

Gutless ‘leadership’ is a prerequisite and precursor of war. We certainly have gutless in rivers these days.

So much for Obama’s political acumen of getting along.

Like a thug, he is trying to force his will, the hell with any other persons in America.

He forgets that Congress is more directly responsible to the american people.

A vote for 0bama’s TRAITOROUS sellout to Iran is a vote to have an American city annihilated with a nuke!

What a lot of cr**. This should be under "advise and consent" not legislative action with an up and down vote with no veto involved.

We got snookered.

What deal? The US didn’t make a deal. The US capitulated on every principle and declared victory. It’s Munich in the 1930’s. The GOP simply has it set up that politically the Dems get the credit/blame for this deal as most GOPers will likely vote against it. If the deal is seen as a mistake in a few years, the Dems will be be in the bulls-eye. Perhaps its good politics, but it’s crappy leadership. Then again, what else should we expect from political weasels.

Islamo-speak to telegraph the passage of this deal should bring middle east wars to western shores.

Islam may be sixth century but it has a very complex way of communicating.

Welcome to the Middle East nuclear arms race. Once the Saudis, Kuwaitis, Omanis, and Jordanians all have the bomb because of Iran getting one in a few years, I’m sure the region will be much more stable.

Maybe they’ll all save us the trouble and nuke each other into oblivion!

Congress’s last stand-— or just another cave in like the rest. Pink ties for weeper and the scarecrow.

This “prevents” Iran from developing a nuke for 10 years.

Who expects more from a community organizer?

It was a surrender, plain and simple. Øbama should insist the accord get signed on the decks of the USS Missouri.
