Brace yourself for a nuclear Iran.

It’s a big day for the alliance between Democrats and the world’s number one terrorist state. Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) has just announced that she will support President Obama’s “deal” with Iran, guaranteeing that the plan will be safe from any GOP attempt to derail it.

From Reuters:

BREAKING: Democratic Senator Mikulski says will support Iran nuclear agreement, giving Obama votes needed to protect deal in Congress.

Shame on her.

[dandiegirl]

Wonder how much BO and Kerry paid her?

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Good question. This whole thing stinks of corruption.

[AU72]

This makes Schumer the biggest hypocrite. He counted the votes before he opposed the deal and didn’t do a thing to fight it.

[ConservativeInPA]

I am an ardent pro-life conservative. However, I think I may have to modify my views. Barbara Mikulski is obviously the product of a failed abortion. By her own stance on abortion she should have been left on the table to die. There is absolutely no one in the Senate that is so disfigured, mentally incompetent, and absolutely a greater burden on society than Milulski.

Pure ugliness. Pure evil. Pure Traitor.

Not to worry, if Iran launches a missile they will only take out Maryland with the east coast or the west coast. Problem solved.

[YourAdHere]

She’s fat.

The shocker here is that Barbara Mikulski is still alive and still in the Senate.

If they didn't get her vote, would they have to dig up Paul Sarbanes or Millard E. Tydings?

[angelcindy]

what am i missing here....I vthought the republicans had control of the senate and congress....so how did it pass

[MichiganCheese]

They voted 99-1 to pass the Corker bill which essentially gave away their power. Yes, all but ONE sold us out.

[Vigilanteman]

BO has unilaterally changed the rules and the GOP is too gutless to push back. Normally, this would be considered a treaty requiring two-thirds approval of the U.S. Senate.

At the very least, it would be considered legislation requiring a majority vote of both houses. However, it is now deemed to be valid and all congress can do is vote to disapprove, requiring a two-thirds vote to override the emperor's veto.

Pretty neat how that works, huh?

[bestintxas]

McConnell: nuclear the filibuster as your predecessor did.

This will save the country.

[bestintxas]

“Normally, this would be considered a treaty requiring two-thirds approval of the U.S. Senate.”

No, it Normally would not be, but ALWAYS.

[FlipWilson]

If I were a candidate I would take the stance that unless or until the Senate approves the Itan deal as it would any treaty, it is null and void the second I am sworn in. I would also pledge to personally Patton slap Senator Corker.

[Ann Archy]

She’s a Liberal Little Lesbian....may her name be CURSED

[wardaddy]

Bob Corker has this blood on his hands

[atc23]

The GOPE oppose it? Only in a rhetorical sense. The said they were going to oppose Obama, defund Obamacare, investigate the scandals and lawlessness - they’re just a rubberstamp for the democrats

[wardaddy]

American Jews 4-1 support the destroyer of their bannermen in Israel not to mention America if Iran gets decent ICBMs

They deserve scorn

It’s incredible

And the GOPe that gave away treaty control for a stupid free trade bill

In other words traded our survival for a bag of shillings

[Vigilanteman]

Completely agree, but the constitution doesn't apply to this regime. See post #15.

We are now governed by an emperor which only needs a 1/3rd vote of congress to do anything he pleases. And even that will become optional or advisory after awhile.
