    Trump is an idiot . His position is that the deal can go through because he's an "expert " at reading the fine print of any deal and knows how to make sure all that fine print is enforced .

    I also hope the constituents of the Dem Senators who will support this deal hold them responsible . Yeah pop your pop corn and watch those Dems in Red States support their position . Should be fun to watch !!!

    The only reason for that is that Senator Corker is a Repubic sell out . It was another one of them ;you have to pass it to find out what's in it bill. If it were not for the Corker bill passed last spring, Mikulski's yes vote would not matter.

    So while I will enjoy watching the Dems defend their position on Iran ;I cannot put all the onus on the Dems because the 'stupid Party' voted away their constitutional prerogative

    The "Stupid Party" is that the party with the majority or a new party of the disillusioned?

    It was a nickname that Bobby Jindal gave the Repubics.

    In this case it is warranted even though the Party that has Evita as the frontrunner with Bolshevik Bernie Sanders in the wings would wear that label well.

    I thought it might be warranted because of its Tea Party connections, the far right can be very stupid. So from your comment it would seem that there is much stupidity in politics generally, that unfortunately has been my experience too

    The Tea Party only recently became stupid with their apparent lining up behind the Trump campaign......a man who's positions(except perhaps controlling the border )are antithetical to the basic philosophy behind the Tea Party movement.


    btw ;I said this deal would lead to proliferation in the ME .

    But no worry ;like the Iranian program....it's for "peaceful " uses.

    That has been in the pipeline for a long time Tom, nuclear energy in Saudi is nothing new and you can bet the Saudi were laughing when you sanctioned Iran and left them alone. Nevertheless you have your dirty little deals
