The GOP, dead, dead and dead.
And I always thought we had a two party system. And some staunch GOP folks wonder why Mr. Trump is doing so well.
The GOP no longer exists, the GOP no longer has a voice. Please tell me again, who took back the house and senate?
Personally I'd just rather give the shia's a "ready made" nuclear device and get this liberal kenyan failure started early.
Our children will pay in blood for what's happening to this nation in the last 7 years.
If and when the next American revolution begins and the liberal/ socialist/communists head to the gun registration records I'll be headed to the voter registration records for my "intel"......
Obama wins critical backing on Iran deal, virtually ensuring survival in Congress
Published September 02, 2015
·FoxNews.com
The Obama administration now appears to have enough support in Congress to stave off Republican efforts to reject the president's controversial Iran nuclear deal, after a retiring Maryland Democratic senator came out Wednesday morning in favor of the pact.
Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., announced her support for the deal as Secretary of State John Kerry delivered a lengthy and detailed address in Philadelphia defending the accord.
In his speech, Kerry disputed what he called "false information" circulating on the deal. He said, contrary to the views of many critics, that the deal provides "access" to keep Iran in check, preserves "every option" to respond if Iran balks, and has elements that will last "for the lifetime of Iran's nuclear program."
"President Obama and I are convinced beyond any reasonable doubt that the framework that we have put forward will get the job done," Kerry said.
But, with Mikulski's endorsement locked down, the speech served more as a public reminder of the administration's stance than a last-minute appeal for support.
Mikulski becomes the 34th senator to support the deal -- giving President Obama enough backing to sustain a veto of a Republican bill opposing it, should that bill pass in a vote later this month. Unless an announced supporter flips his or her vote, Obama would appear to have the crucial coalition in place to preserve the agreement on Capitol Hill.

I can just imagine Zero's book when he returns to civilian life:

Any "republican" that voted for this boondoggle needs to be voted out, no exceptions.

You have to wonder what is being promised to these dems who are rolling over in the senate, the power is in the ability to over ride the veto. This has not even come to a head yet and we are suppose to believe that it is all over.

I think the only saving grace in this whole shambles is the certainty that the Iranians will cheat. This will give the incoming administration, whoever they are, the opportunity to reverse or cancel the deal. Lets hope they have the guts to do so when it happens.

Iranians watch out!!
If they piss off the POTUS, he might just allow John Kerry to unleash the awesome might of James Taylor again.
