No that is not the GOP for you, that is the treasonous Neocon contingent putting their love for Israel before the United States again.Wow that's damn near treasonous. Interfering in the most important negotiation our country is facing in a way that benefits the enemy. But that's the GOP for you, politics before America.
No, we didn't need to go to war with the USSR but liberals want nothing more than to solve the problem with hope and change.Republicans want nothing short of war with Iran.
There are some on the right who are now open traitors. They don't even bother to hide it anymore.
Republicans Warn Iran -- and Obama -- That Deal Won t Last - Bloomberg View
A group of 47 Republican senators has written an open letter to Iran's leaders warning them that any nuclear deal they sign with President Barack Obama's administration won’t last after Obama leaves office.Organized by freshman Senator Tom Cotton and signed by the chamber's entire party leadership as well as potential 2016 presidential contenders Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul, the letter is meant not just to discourage the Iranian regime from signing a deal but also to pressure the White House into giving Congress some authority over the process.
“It has come to our attention while observing your nuclear negotiations with our government that you may not fully understand our constitutional system … Anything not approved by Congress is a mere executive agreement,” the senators wrote. “The next president could revoke such an executive agreement with the stroke of a pen and future Congresses could modify the terms of the agreement at any time.”
Arms-control advocates and supporters of the negotiations argue that the next president and the next Congress will have a hard time changing or canceling any Iran deal -- -- which is reportedly near done -- especially if it is working reasonably well.
Well, this is new, even in the world of the GOP batshit-crazy. This really does one-up it all. It's also kind of funny that there is a constitutional error in what the Senators wrote to the government of Iran. The Senate does NOT ratify treaties. That is even indicated directly on their Senate website. Instead, the Senate takes up a resolution of ratification, by which the Senate formally gives its advice and consent, empowering the president to proceed with ratification” . It's a fine point, almost splitting hairs, but worth noting.
So, Republicans hate this Democratic President so much that they are even willing to pen a letter to someone they consider an enemy of ours.
Back to the Bloomberg link:
It's stunning. And it's a rebuke on an international stage that doesn't really have a precedent. Imagine Democrats micro-managing the START talks in the 80s by sending an open letter to Gorbachev? It just wouldn't have been viewed as an acceptable political move while the talks were still happening.
The only conclusion we can make is that the GOP is not the loyal opposition, it is a severly disloyal opposition and deserves to be treated with disdain and contempt for such unamerican behavior. The GOP simply hates America, it's that simple.
Wow. This is one hell of a new benchmark these assholes are setting. To deliberately be working to undermine ongoing negotiations is about as vile and treacherous as it gets.
You have to go damn near back to the Jay Treaty to see this kind of shit.

Russia will support Iran, yes, but that does not mean we need to go to war with Iran to keep them from getting nukes. The sanctions are never going to be let up much if they don't back down verifiably. The people will overthrow the Ayatollahs if the sanctions stay in place. The Iranian leadership knows that.
yep. Sending more people's kids off to fight their boogeymen like they did in vietraqRepublicans want nothing short of war with Iran.
You are Fantasy Boy, my friend. That was 2009 and it is six hard years later. The screws will only get tighter on the Iranians. The real fantasy is that you would think that we would go to far with Iran. Our military chiefs have already told POTUS and Congress behind closed doors that is a no go.You're living in fantasy world if you think the people of iran are going to overthrow the ayatollahs. They had their chance a few years ago to change leadership and they couldn't even do that.Russia will support Iran, yes, but that does not mean we need to go to war with Iran to keep them from getting nukes.

There is no detail other than to realize how russia is maneuvering iran into it's proxy state by aiding it towards nuclear capabilities. If you can't see that, you're as blind as a mole.
That would require hard thinking for LBT.Wow. This is one hell of a new benchmark these assholes are setting. To deliberately be working to undermine ongoing negotiations is about as vile and treacherous as it gets.

Of course there's no detail, you are simply a parrot; realpolitik is at play, not religion nor ideology.
Do some homework and consider how the proposed trans-Caspian gas pipeline might force Russian and Iranian cooperation.
