Can the GOP at Least Slow Iran Deal?

Republicans are considering their options to thwart the Iran deal and preserve at least some of the sanctions against Iran for as long as possible. They’ll do this by rebuking Barack Obama for failing even to abide by the terms of Sen. Bob Corker’s ill-advised review deal. Under that law, which Obama signed, he was required to submit all relevant information to the deal, including unbelievably foolish secret side deals, by July 19, after which Congress would have 60 days for review. Obama did not do so, which Republicans argue means the congressional review period never actually began. They have forced a delay in the debate over the deal until Obama hands over the information.

Nothing shady about this deal. To do nothing will assure a nuclear Iran.

It's easy - two-thirds of the senate must approve all treaties......

If it's not approved by that senate majority - it is not binding to future administrations.....

The GOP has applied their brakes to America and the American people so often in the past few years it is a wonder their brakes aren't burned out.
