I’d like to know why Cruz voted for Corker’s treaty nullification bill.
This doesn’t make sense given that he doesn’t talk like he’d go along with the constitutional travesty.
Senator Jeff Sessions also voted for it.
Senator Cruz fought against cloture on the Corker bill, he fought passionately and long that the Corker bill would turn the Senate treaty powers of the Constitution upside down. But once McConnell lined up his lemmings for Cloture of the bill, Senator Cruz came out sad and disappointed knowing he could not stop it, so he told the Press that he would vote for the bill because it would slightly delay it by a few months.
Here’s the thing: the Iran deal is ultimately about the $150+ Billion that is held frozen around the world as a result of sanctions. The deal is not a treaty, it is an agreement to release the $$$. For the US Senate to argue ‘treaty’ was dumb because those around the world with their hands on the $$$ don’t give a damn about US Senators and their arguments about ‘treaty’; it’s meaningless to them.
So although we’d like to admire Senator Cotton for his principled stand, his stand don’t mean sh*t in the bigger picture.
Here’s another thing: Barack Obama threatened Congress that if he didn’t get a deal he would go around them to the UN and get what he wanted which was a release of the $$$. HE PROMISED IF CONGRESS GAVE HIM THE DEAL HE WOULD HOLD OFF ON GOING TO THE UN.
HE BROKE HIS PROMISE. So Ted Cruz and Jeff Sessions voting for the Corker Bill to ‘delay’ it was in vain because it wasn’t delayed because Obama is a f*cking liar.
So regardless of the f*cking ‘deal’, the $$$ is on its way to Iran and their terror network.
McConnell should have stoked the House to immediately bring articles of impeachment for setting up a Senate trial but as you can see he’s an ass and a moron. As Donald Trump says McConnell’s a great part of the incompetence in Congress and the result of this incompetence is we are, as Ted Cruz says, going to have a war in the next 2 years.
Sorry for my profanity but this is bad all around and should make people max angry; but the logic/illogic behind the whole damn thing makes it difficult for people to get their thoughts clear about it. Once people understand the real story behind it, and once they understand there’s going to be a whole lot of dead Americans because of it, then Obama should be tried and convicted which won’t happen because political correctness has made Americans stupid.
I guarantee you in the next few years ahead, political correctness is going to be so hated that the Megyn Kelly’s of the press will be afraid to appear anywhere.
