Obama is loving this? Didn’t much look like he was loving anything when I saw him on TV whining about it.
I say it's Article II, Section II, Clause II
Clause 2: Advice and Consent Clause
The President exercises the powers in the Advice and Consent Clause with the advice and consent of the Senate.
He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur
The letter is just letting the Ayatollahs know how it works over here.
Kirk signed it because he lives in some bubble where the entire state of Illinois has a large Jewish population like his old congressional district did. (In reality, the Jewish vote statewide has virtually no affect in contested races) He basically fears they’ll vote against him if he takes any anti-Jewish stance. (this also explains why Kirk oppose Hagel as Secretary of Defense, but had no qualms about confirmed even worse Obama nominees, even being the ONLY Republican to support Obama’s far-left wing activist pick for Surgeon General)

I’d like to recall my senator: Flake, is just what he is.
Yeah, but he keeps his administrative assistant “close by” 24/7 to take care of any problems which may arise! Very reassuring!
Riiigggghhhhttt!!!!
The shame of being represented by these two from TN is overwhelming!
Summary....saving the US should be the first priority!
Corker and Alexzander of TN are both long time RINOs and Obama groupies..
Corker has carried the golf bags for Obama...just call them Bwana-Obama and Caddy-Corker...
“Would love to hear their reason for not signing.”.
Perhaps they were out of the country on another “fact finding vacation”, errrrrr,, mission. (Phew, almost misspoke there)
It surprised you that Corker was there? If one of the Tennessee RINO twins (LAMAR!) is on the list, can the other be far behind? Why Tennessee keeps voting elephant sized RINOs into office I will never know. But those two boys are guaranteed votes for the democrats most of the time.
I can also understand why the 5 you mentioned did not sign Cotton’s letter to Iran. It’s because they are a word that begins with C and ends with T; chicken***t. I don’t know why you’re surprised that Corker and Coats didn’t sign. They were both RINOs before they came out of the closet.
Corker has been a political whore his entire career. He just kept it somewhat concealed.
To: Flaglady47: I’m giving nickcarraway the benefit of the doubt; that he just forgot to use the “sarcasm symbol” rather than think that he has slipped into a state of stupid.
Term limits are essential if we survive as a Republic.
[[Krauthammer said it was a good letter but should not have been addressed to Iran, should have been an open letter to the world.]]
The problem though is that the republicans might have jeopardized their ‘veto proof majority’ because the dems they did have on their side before the letter now might not side with them because of the letter- at least that’s what Fox news is reporting today
Yes. That’s what the Kraut Hammer went on to say - that it gave the appearance of undermining The 0ne’s ability to negotiate with Iran. As if the Rats who signed the letter were hoodwinked into it by the tricky GOP.
Maybe true, but he looks distinguished on TV.
The name reminds me of a song from the 1950s:
"My girl's a Corker, she's a New Yorker,
I buy her everything to keep her in style..."
I’m surprised that McLame DID.
