In my weekend column I offered a concrete plan to undermine President Obamas atrocious Iran deal. It is an easy one, because all that the Republican-controlled Congress has to do, if it really wants to derail this thing, is follow the law that they wrote and Obama signed, the Corker law the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015, sometimes also known as Corker-Cardin, after Senate sponsors Bob Corker (R., Tenn.) and Ben Cardin (D., Md.).
Sadly, in another iteration of the anger that is the wind beneath Donald Trumps wings, many readers insist that GOP leadership has no intention to block Obama on Iran. If that is so, it is passing strange. The national-security threat here is grave. Plus, how much credibility can Republicans have (maybe I should just end the sentence there) in complaining about Obamas disregard of federal law if they wont even follow the law they themselves enacted just four months ago?
In my column I demonstrate that Obama has failed to comply with the crystal-clear conditions spelled out in the Corker law. This is indisputable. Side deals that the statute explicitly requires to be disclosed to Congress involving, for example, IAEA inspection terms and Irans prior nuclear work have been withheld. Moreover, not addressed in my column is yet another alarming side deal Obama has refused to disclose: one that shows the president is deceiving the public when he preposterously claims that sanctions will snap back if Iran is caught cheating. (Ill have more to say about this in another post. For now, see this important Real Clear World report, particularly the subsection Fallacious Snapback Sanctions.)

Voters know the GOP. It’s why they are going for Trump. He knows them even better. He has to deal with their wimpy duplicity up close
If he turns out to be worse than they are but for different reasons ... Well what can we do? These guys are bad
A traitorous criminal resides in the WH.
Numerous traitorous criminals reside in the halls of Congress.
I used to think comments like that were hyperbole.
Now they are speaking the truth.
“I used to think comments like that were hyperbole.”
Not long ago, it probably was hyperbole. Sadly, not today.
