Quote:That's a flat out lie. The alternative, which I have presented many times, is continuing negotiations for a deal where American prisoners are released, verification visits will be immediate, and American investigators can be part of the verification process. I believe that this (Obama's) deal will make war more likely.


 

Right now the count is 34 senators who will join in to uphold a presidential veto. That means 66 senators oppose the plan, a clear majority. Polls show a majority of Americans also oppose the plan. Whether you like the deal or not, treaties should require a large majority approval. The fact that Congress passed a bill allowing Obama to get around the 2/3 majority approval required in the Constitution is appalling. There is no longer an opposition party. We are subjects of an out of control government.

I have seen nothing that shows me this makes war more likely. The opposite is the case IMO. Again though, you are presenting a situation where the US is the only party at the table with Tehran. That is not the case I don't understand why people think we control the entire deal. We do not.

 

I don't know much about the bolded but I am inclined to agree. 

 

By opposition party do you mean opposition to the current president or opposition to the president in general or something else entirely?
