Senate votes 58-42, failing to overcome Dem filibuster on Iran nuke deal. The deal will stand
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Not sure I understand this. The nuke deal REQUIRES approval, since it is a TREATY.
I must be stupid.
Incorrect. This was a joint production of Democrats and GOP-e.
Doesn’t there have to be a filibuster first? Let them do it!!!
.
>> “I must be stupid.” <<
Obviously there are many here that wish we all were!
Just waiting until the adults get home and pull the plug on these morons computers.
Dude, we're friends. But you're wrong. Yes, you are 'officially' right, but you are wrong in practice.
We've been in a post-constitutional era since 2008.
This 'agreement' will have all the practical effect of a constitutional treaty. Obama does not bother with law.
.
Just like Bengazi.
Just like the Arab summer.
But its not that simple.
We are fast closing in on the climax of this folly, and I think we out-number them by about 3 to 1.
If not, YHVH does!
.
Of course no mention that Mitch could have changed the rules and done away with the filibuster and invoked the nuclear option of 51. Just like Harry Reid would have done.
.
Its called Kabbalah.
But it isn’t going to work out the way they have it planned.
I cheated and read the last chapters of the book.
.
republicans surrendered and then pretended to fight.
they did the same thing with the marriage amendment when Hawaii legalized homosexual marriage in the 1990s.
The blood of millions will be on their hands, but they don’t give a damn.
The gist of the US Constitution requires a supermajority to ram treaties down our throats. It now seems that it takes a supermajority to stop one.
This country is doomed.
Not the least bit surprised.
I hope all these congresscritters are in DC when an iranian nuke goes off there. Or at the very least Pelosi is in Frisco when one goes off there.
These people are either truly disconnected from reality at this point or filled with malice. Either way, this will not end well.
Could be. Maybe he should also educate the RINO’s while he is at it.
That was, in their point of view, not a failure, My FRiend. It was a well planned and executed plan. This upcoming election, they can tell their idiots, er voters that they tried to prevent it and stop it. But all is not lost, re-elect me and I will repeal it. Their cadre and moles on this forum will began beating their drums and shouting, “Any vote not for ________[fill in blank is for the Democrat. Vote for so and so the Republican”. And the sheep, await the slaughter, calm and serene.
You haven’t got there yet?
And, whatever his reasons, Cruz voted for the Corker Bill that made this possible.
Correction: “These D’s were ALLOWED to vote to end debate because the Ds had the votes.”
Yep. He had convoluted reasons why the Corker bill “might delay” the bill a little longer. Like a week.
