Wednesday on PBS NewsHour, Secretary of State John Kerry articulated the administrations new position on Sen. Bob Corkers (R-TN) bill demanding Congress get a vote on the merits of President Obamas nuclear deal with Iran, in light of prominent Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) supporting the bill this week.
Making it clear the bill can not interfere with the presidents deal, Kerry said if its changed and adjusted and reflects the respect for the Constitution and the presidents prerogatives, then Congress can vote.

When John Kerry lectures and ridicules you with impunity, you know you have sunk to the bottom of the barrel, drilled through it, and are now under the barrel heading down even deeper every day.
As far as Obama is concerned, Congress and the Senate are lower than whale poop when it comes to governmental power. And it is of their own doing.
Since January, 2009 the democrats (and a few republicans) in Congress and the Senate joined with Obama in rendering both bodies practically nonessential.
They happily relinquished their power and authority to Obama.
He didn’t, and doesn’t, even look for them to Rubber Stamp his dictates.
Now that they want to regain just a little bit of their manhood he ignores them and laughs at their impotence. They are insignificant to him and his administration. Their only use to him is to provide a little comic relief.
Obama lets them puff up their chests, strut around, hold hearings, shuffle paper, and make a fuss to impress the folks back home. But they are no more important or noticeable to him than a pimple would be.
Mr Kerry, if Congress wants to it can remove the President. The President cannot remove Congress. Why do you think our Government is structured this way?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
John Kerry actually thinks that he gets to dictate the powers of the U.S. Congress!
Both Kerry and the Senate Majority Leader are cut from the same cloth.
Sadly, it seems like all the education currently available in the public arena.
Sounds like:
“It doesn’t matter that the people can vote, but who counts the votes”
-Stalin
He does if they let him.
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
George Santayana
BILL WHITTLE’S 6 minute video effort to remind us of that past.

The Ketchup Gigolo strikes again...
What deal? Isn’t it just a framework for a deal? Or an outline of a framework for a deal? Or a list for the outline . . .
Interesting point. Thank you.
Spoken like the true totalitarian thug he is...
oh how charitable of Kerry/Obama/Our Dear Rulers.
they will allow Congress to vote as long as it
doesn’t mean or do anything
in other words,
Congress is generously permitted to sit around and play with itself if it wants to (like a cub scout circle j*erk?)
just don’t bother us while WE YOUR RULERS sell out America and finish screwing up the entire world.
fun fun fun!
fun fun fun!
fun fun fun!
(Constitutional advise and CONSENT clause? FORGET IT! That old Constitution is safely locked up in a display case somewhere, where it can’t possibly get in our way.)
Please pray for America. We have to get through another 21 months of this sh*t
So what was his view when he was in the Senate? Did he believe that his votes should not interfere with a republican administration?
Maybe he was for it before he was against it?
Note that the ill-conceived 17th Amendment is lurking in the background of Kerrys constitutionally indefensible statement. That amendment needs to disappear.
We don’t have to worry about this jacka$$ and Oblaba’s pact with Iran. It is being nullified by IRAN!
If I am the senate — Democrats included! — I send Kerry this response:
STFU. GTFO.
