National Review Calls for Impeachment Over Iran Deal
Moonbattery ^ | July 27, 2015 | Dave Blount

Posted on 07/27/2015 9:44:18 AM PDT by QT3.14

Even the normally restrained if not downright tepid National Review has reached the obvious conclusion — Obama must be impeached for facilitating the acquisition of nuclear weapons by America’s worst enemy. Andrew McCarthy notes that in the time of the Founding Fathers, it was regarded as an impeachable offense for a president to withhold information from Congress regarding a treaty, or to use unscrupulous tactics to acquire Senate approval. Compare that to what Obama has done:

If only congress had the intestinal fortitude to do it. I don’t think that there is anyway the media could spin this away, especially with our national loudmouth, Donald Trump, calling things for what they are. People, even the left, would be up in arms about it, just as they were when Jimmy Carter gave away the Panama Canal.

Impeachment?

The GOP senate are the ones who handed more power to Obama.

They are too afraid to lay a glove on Obama, much less impeach him.

Obama KNOWS that McCain helped form ISIS and began
the IRS attacks on TEA Party, and that Boehner made
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ from ObamaCARE.

Impeachment?

More likely, Obama will exterminate Republicans
and then the Congress, first.

National RINO actually saying the right things is something to remark on.

I’m done now.

National Review must be fair and balanced. The headline is :Why Obama’s Executive Action on Iran Does Not Violate the Law

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/421621/iran-deal-constition-supports-obama-executive-action

No wonder laymen are confused.

If only the American people could look up from their I-phones long enough to see and understand...

Too many adults won’t care enough to understand, complain, or act, until reality has smacked them personally, up side the head.

...at which time it will be too late.

If you read the article it blames the Republicans for making it so that it does not violate the law, due to the Corker Bill.

But critics of the Iran deal should save their strength when it comes to the Constitution. Last spring, Republicans in Congress created a process to review the agreement by majority vote. If Congress disapproves the deal, President Obama can still veto the resolution. In other words, two-thirds of the House and Senate will have to agree to stop the Iran deal — a bizarre inversion of the Treaty Clause.

Congressional Republicans may have scored a political victory by putting every Senate Democrat on the record on the Iran deal, but they have also inadvertently bolstered the deal’s legality.

Has he noticed the filthy, lying, greedy scum that populates our legislature? Led by traitors Boehner and McConnell? They don’t care about anything except lining their lousy pockets.

Dave Blount & Andrew McCarthy are both correct of course, but the Republican leadership does not have the balls to even consider impeachment in private (lest it get leaked to the press) let alone actually bring impeachment proceedings against Obama.

Trump “Crazy” hits National Review? Wonderful!

It’s about time conservative media did some heavier lifting.

Mitch McConnell would gladly lick Obama’s butt clean. He’s more likely to give Obama oral sex on live TV than take part in an impeachment.

I don’t see the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Senate impeaching lawless Obama. Even after three election cycles, low-information patriots have failed to elect the 2/3 Senate majority necessary to remove a House-impeached president from office.

This 17th Amendment gridlock might have been avoided if state legislatures still uniquely elected federal senators as the Founding States had intended.

sorry if I wasn’t more explicit. It was the website’s headline not the article of this thread. Two articles, seemingly saying opposite things.
