#1 Contempt of Congress charges are due.

Let the Cold War within begin.

#2 Kerry and Obama are so desperate to have their 'Legacy' that they are willing to sell us, and Israel to the Iranians to get it.
That is basically what this deal is - a bill of sale for Israeli lives.

#3 So the deal isn't "Legally Binding" means Iran doesn't have to follow it.

Is it just me or is the amateur hour growing into the amateur decade?

#4 Total illogic is what I expect from this Keystone cops version of fascist dictator wannabes.

If it's not legally binding you a-brained buffoon, congress doesn't have to change it, it can ignore it completely. Hopefully they will realize that they should ignore this whole corruptocrat circus that passes for our regime....either that or arrest them all for treason and behead the lot.

#6 There also was an executive agreement with Saigon vis a vis supporting South Vietnam.

We all know what happened later with (a Democratically-controlled) Congress.

#8 I think it was Thomas Sowell who said O will just surrender to everyone. Well at least not to Republicans. I really believe if Iran goes nuclear and destroys an American city O will do nothing in response.

#9 "On Happy Day ..." > MAD MAX: FURY ROAD trailer???

As for SecState Jaawhn,

* FREEREPUBLIC ARTICS this AM = Kerry says ...

> IRAN NUKE DEAL is NON-BINDING, which I'm personally interpreting that Iran can covertly proceed full-bore wid NucWeaps research-n-development widout violating the Deal.

> US OR US-ALLIES "HAVE THE CAPACITY TO DESTROY THE ISIS, BUT WE WON'T DO IT".

Unfortunately, iff true this statement by Kerry gives credence to IRAN'S claims that the Obama Admin = USA covertly desires to keep the ISIS contained, but NOT defeated or destroyed as an Organized Polity to use as a MilPol or Geopol hedge agz US' international rivals or protagonists.
