Iran Nuclear Deal Gets Support of House Israel Backer, Sander Levin
New York Times ^ | July 28 2015

WASHINGTON — Representative Sander M. Levin, Democrat of Michigan and the longest-serving Jewish member now in the House, said Tuesday that he would support the Iran nuclear accord, lending a hefty voice of approval in a chamber deeply skeptical of the deal.

“Israel’s security has and always will be of critical importance to me and our country,” Mr. Levin said in a lengthy statement explaining his decision. “I believe that Israel, the region and the world are far more secure if Iran does not move toward possession of a nuclear weapon. I believe the agreement is the best way to achieve that. In my view, the only anchors in public life are to dig deeply into the facts and consult.”

A fool is a fool and will behave as such. Remember he is a liberal Democrat. His neurological circuits are a bit challenged.

This is huge, and might guarantee the veto will not be over-ridden.

It never really had a chance to be overridden. The best Congress can do is go on record rejecting the “deal”. That will despite the posturing and preening of Obama and Kerry will have an effect far greater than they will care to admit.

I really believe the “Iran Nuclear Deal is a done deal.
Over the next 7-8 weeks we will hear all the sounds and furies of the Washington Kabuki Theater, but in the end Mitch McConnell and John Boehner will make sure it is confirmed.

"Hefty voice of approval" ?

I haven't heard anything out of Sander Levin since approximately the time of Watergate.

If it turns out that you are correct then it all boils down to how soon Israel will attack the nuclear sites in Iran.

“My dear friends,

Climb aboard; This train will take all of us to Nirvana!

Move smartly, and step aside, as so many more Jews want to get aboard!

“Your car is not full! Direct another 50 Jews to fill up the cattle car”!

Sander Levin, 1941
