Iran, don’t sign a deal with Obama, you can’t trust him, and he may be a Muslim, say 47 fking cukoo bananas GOP Senators!
Simply put this letter from the GOP is a kick in the face to Iran telling them that no matter what the President of the United States says or does, the Republican held House and Senate are going to war with them unless you do exactly what Bibi Netanyahu tells you to do.
The seven Republican Senators who refused to sign the letter are Lamar Alexander, Susan Collins, Bob Corker, Dan Coats, Jeff Flake, Lisa Murkowski and Thad Cochran who will avoid being tried for treason and sedition in this case. If the remaining 47 Senators do avoid being charged with treason they should at least be treated the same as Jane Fonda was treated in 1972. Wait on that. She was speaking against war not to promote war. War is American as apple pie, peace is as unAmerican as Jesus Christ.
A special poke in the nose to the presidential hopeful Senators who signed the letter: Rand Paul (R – KY), Marco Rubio (R – FL), Ted Cruz (R – TX), and Lindsey Graham (R – SC) with Governors Bobby Jindal (LA) and Rick Perry (TX) chiming in. Notice a familiar region in all that do you?
This Republican Senate letter comes on the heels of just last week having the Republican House also undermining the President’s foreign policy inviting Netanyahu to come give a rousing GO TO WAR WITH IRAN speech to endless standing ovations. Like the Netanyahu speech this Senate letter to Iran tells the world that no matter what deal they make with the President, the Republican Congress will change it and blow Iran off the face of the Earth. Or is it that pushed back into the sea? I forget, same mentality though hey?
I also must loudly disagree with Jon Stewart that a single elected official, Democrat or Republican or attractive celebrity, going to a foreign nation to decry executive branch policy is the same as an entire House of Congress usurping a President’s policy abroad.
