Iran Deal, so What's New? Democrats are Slippery Weasels!

These Democrat Senators are political weasels who could ultimately, with Obama, give Iran the A-Bomb! m/r

Senators Slippery on Iran Deal | The American Spectator


By Betsy McCaughey – 8.27.15

Democrats running out the clock for Obama.

The authors of our U.S. Constitution envisioned Senators as serious-minded leaders. Now many act like weasels. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) , Benjamin Cardin (D-MD), and Cory Booker (D-NJ), and others — some 18 senators in all — give slippery, noncommittal answers about the proposed deal with Iran and claim they are studying the issue. Sorry. They’re dodging the issue. 
Watching these senators avoid taking a stand is nauseating. If this deal is approved, our children will face the threat of a nuclear war with Iran. These senators are not worried about that. They’re looking out for their own political futures and squirming under pressure from the White House to support the deal, while opponents warn that the deal is a serious threat to America and a death sentence for Israel.
These senators are gaming the system. If the President appears to have enough votes without them, the White House will quietly release them to vote against the deal. Otherwise, they’ll have to vote with Obama, the safety of our children and Israel be damned.
Blumenthal claims he is carefully reading the deal. Nonsense, it’s only 159 pages long, and he’s had it for six weeks Page one shows it’s a sham. ...

... Senator Booker is another weasel. He’s avoiding taking a stand because he’s a surrogate speaker for Hillary Clinton, and she’s on record supporting the Iran deal.
