Today’s vote has now been delayed and the House GOP caucus will meet at 4 p.m. to find a way forward because John Boehner once again miscalculated the degree of support he had in his own caucus

.Members of the conservative House Freedom Caucus are demanding that the Obama administration send side deals between Iran and international nuclear inspectors to Congress as part of the Iran deal now under consideration. Opponents of the deal have argued that the clock on congressional consideration of the deal has not even begun until these side deals are submitted.

Rep. Peter Roskam (R-Ill.) has offered a resolution that would prevent a vote on the Iran deal until all of the documents of the international agreement — including the deals between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) are provided to Congress for review.

Update: The new plan, allegedly:

If I’m reading that correctly, they’re essentially going to turn McCarthy’s point into a matter of mere symbolism — i.e. “yes, Obama didn’t comply with the Corker bill by submitting all elements of the agreement, but we’re going to go ahead and vote on it anyway.” McCarthy’s strategy is designed, I thought, to stop this process in its tracks before the GOP’s resolution dies in the Senate. Instead it’s being treated as a minor hiccup, something that can be footnoted as the original plan to vote this week is carried out.

I believe a non vote is the best course, because Obama can’t veto that, fail to have it overridden, and then have it become law.

Wrong. The Corker Bill gave the President absolute authority to make this agreement, it can only be voted down since it is already law. If the Senate does nothing the bill stands, if they vote it down then the President vetoes their refusal and it remains law because there are not enough votes to overturn the veto. Aren't you glad a democrat did not beat McConnell? </s>

" then it never becomes law"

This one does.

That's one clause in the Corker bill.

Absent passing a law to void the Iran deal, it comes into full force 60 days after submission.

And you can thank the TREASONOUS Republican Senators for that.

ALL OF THEM, except Tom Cotton, of course.

All we need is a Speaker with a spine.

We need to retire cry baby John and his weak senate leader buddy, Mitch McConnell now! Those liars, those spineless RINO’s need to be removed now! They are liars and cowards! Between them, Obama, and the other lock step voting liberals our once great nation is on the verge of total destruction! We need true conservative patriots that believe in God and the constitution to lead us out of this mess! It may be too late already! Stand up freedom loving Americans, take our country back before it is lost forever. If the USA falls, there will be no freedom, no human rights. The world will be run by dictators and tyrants, we are almost there already! Stand up before it is too,late!
