....yet Cruz voted for the Corker bill.
I don’t get it. If the GOP doesn’t have enough votes to overcome a dem filibuster, why don’t they make them truly filibuster? If the safety of the free world depends on it and we’re talking about parts of Israel and possibly the U.S. getting vaporized, don’t you think we should go beyond procedural and into a true filibuster?
Valerie Jarrett STARTED the Iranian nuke "DEAL" negotiations IN SECRET YEARS AGO. Yet Congress ignores.
I voted yes on final passage because it may delay, slightly, President Obamas ability to lift the Iran sanctions and it ensures we will have a Congressional debate on the merits of the Iran deal.

The problem is they are not following the law.
And if you’re stupid that’s all you know.
The problem is that they are all playing for the same f&cking team. Every single thing that comes out of DC is theater. Cruz was either too stupid/naive to understand the ramifications of voting for the Corker bill or he was fully on board with where we ended up today...regardless of what he ‘says’.
Judge them by their actions not their words.
Cruz voted for the bill. That is the bottom line kiddo...nothing he ‘says’ now really matters does it?
And if we follow the law from the Bill, this Iran deal cannot be approved now.
Those that let Obama become president share responsibility in this.
I voted for Mitt.
...and if they continue to be stupid enough to trust McConnell and Obama then they aren’t smart enough to lead this country.
We don’t have to trust them. We just have to hold them to the law.
Because we have a POS as Senate Majority Leader, whom I loathe with a passion.
They are all on the same team. Wake up and accept that fact then everything becomes much more clear. Not a single member of the DC cartel gives 2 shits about you and I.
In the “agreement”, the US is required to come to the defense of Iran if its nuclear facilities are attacked. Am I wrong on this?
If I am right, how is this not a treaty?
Why don’t we follow the Corker formula and pass a law that says you only need 34 votes to impeach a President, instead of 67? That would be constitutional if this is. Of course, neither one is constitutional. A majority cannot vote to take away the right of 34 Senators to scuttle a treaty.
....yet Cruz voted for the Corker bill.Yea some constitutional lawyer huh?
The man is either a fraud or a complete idiot.
Why he would have voted away his constitutional right of veto is beyond disgusting.
If there was anything that came across this idiots desk to fight THIS deal would have been it.
He may end up with blood on his hands as a result of this lunacy.
I hope ALL the parties signatory to this Iran deal rot in hell.
Bingo, it would have been a done deal by now.
And there are a lot of ways to do serious damage to this “treaty” if conservatives are smart enough to use them. The Michigan and Oklahoma attorney’s general are calling on other states to impose their own sanctions on Iran (Based on a precedent set by a 2008 Ted Cruz supreme court win) Michigan has had sanctions against Iran since 2013 and it irritates Obama but there really isn’t anything he can do about it.

When I favored voting for the Democrat in Kentucky instead of McConnell, I was met with a lot of disapproval here. This is why. He does way more damage as majority leader than if we were in a minority, or if we had a majority of 53 instead of 54.
Boehner is in denial about his upcoming opposition....
Claims he got a standing o, by members of House, today. I’d like to know just who stood up for this sorry @zz.
