For the last several months I’ve been documenting the many reasons to reject the O’Ministration’s rotten “deal” with Iran. (Here, here and here.) There’s no question that any sane individual, who’s honestly taken the time to educate themselves about this agreement, could ever support its terms. It’s a total capitulation to Iranian nuclear ambitions, complete surrender to a charter member of the “axis of evil.”

Now a potent dose of harsh reality like that would certainly give most normal Americans pause… but not our stellar member of the RINO Ruling Elite. Eschewing sanity – and moral clarity – Senate Majority Leader McConnell, has just folded like cheap lawn chair on the deal, betraying America, Israel, and the Constitution.
 
Sensing that opposition momentum to the “deal” was building, yesterday the duplicitous senator frantically rushed through a vote (unnecessarily ahead of the Sept. 17th deadline), to purposely avoid any further honest debate. What’s truly unconscionable is that all along there was a legitimate way to prevent this fiasco.

This agreement with Iran has been falsely promoted as a “deal” since Kerry triumphantly announced it earlier this summer. Wrong. It was negotiated as a treaty (a legally binding long-term agreement between sovereign powers) and remains a treaty. And as such, is subject to Congressional approval (not to Obama’s pen!).
 
But instead of adhering to the constitution, insisting on calling it a “treaty” and demanding that the proper procedures be followed, according to Mark Levin, there’s no question that Mitch McConnell cut a deal with Barack Obama to push the agreement through exactly as it has been.
 

Here’s Levin’s September 10th show. It’s a must-listen (especially the first 1/2 hour or so) if you want to understand what really happened with this outrageous stunt ~

 
Corker-Cardin, the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act was a sham, specifically engineered to get around the legitimate, Constitutional treaty process.
 
In fact, after a review of the administration’s “deal,” several reasonable amendments were introduced in the Senate with the aim of putting teeth into the agreement, to require some accountability from Iran. Guess who voted them all down? McConnell and his little sub-party of poltroons [including Bob Corker (TN), Lindsey Graham (SC), Lamar Alexander (TN), Jeff Flake (AZ)].

Even John Podhoretz, no great friend of conservatives, considers their feckless actions a betrayal ~ Spitting on the Constitution to pass the Iran deal ~

To call this a scandal doesn’t even begin to do justice to what it is. It really does suggest we are fast turning into a banana republic, whose leaders feel free to spit on a Constitution whose central purpose is to restrain the ambitions of strongmen and their shameful toadies.

Had the Republicans – who incidentally, currently control both houses of Congress – presented a united front and done the right thing; demanded that this treaty be treated as treaty and opposed the president’s capitulation to the world’s leading sponsor of Islamic terrorism, this disastrous “deal” could have been decisively undone.
 
Instead, under Mitch McConnell, United States Senate proceedings have become a non-stop Kabuki Theater production.
