Look like Corker will have the override.....although I doubt he will announce it. Works better as a surprise.
doesn't it take 2/3 vote of congress to override? does it really have that much support? that's pretty significant.
says here it "tentatively" has 64 votes which is 3 shy: Barbara Boxer Tells Bob Corker It's 'Reckless' And 'Irresponsible' To Vote Now On Iran Bill
I think they will be 2 over.....when all is said and done.
Chuck Schumer bucks White House on Iran.....
The comments Monday by the Democratic leader-in-waiting illustrate the enormity of the task ahead for Obama and his team: While there’s no guarantee that Congress would ultimately reject an agreement with Iran, there’s an increasingly bipartisan consensus that Congress should at least have the ability to do so.
Within the Senate Democratic Caucus, a dozen senators have either co-sponsored Corker’s legislation or indicated they could support it. That would put the measure one vote shy of a veto-proof majority. On Monday, three more Democratic senators — Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Claire McCaskill of Missouri — left open the possibility of voting for it, according to aides. Their support, however, could hinge on whether Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.), the new ranking member of the Foreign Relations Committee, is able to negotiate concessions that alleviate concerns the bill could derail any agreement.
But White House press secretary Josh Earnest declined to entertain that possibility, telling reporters on Monday that the White House sees no way to reconcile Corker’s bill with the president’s mission of finishing Iran negotiations before Congress votes on anything.....snip~

well I guess that's why they'll have to vote on it and see I suppose. seems a far cry from your statement that "looks like corker will have the override" though.
Doesn't look like a far cry to many......especially being one shy and having 3 more come out after Shumer and his thoughts on it. This past Monday.
April 14th is the vote.....and Corker has really never been one to run around bragging.
from your article: "Within the Senate Democratic Caucus, a dozen senators have either co-sponsored Corker’s legislation or indicated they could support it."
so, the bill could have enough support to be one shy of passage. Then another three could be open to supporting it. all of which "could hinge on whether Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.), the new ranking member of the Foreign Relations Committee, is able to negotiate concessions that alleviate concerns the bill could derail any agreement."
I dunno, I just think you're way, way too confident that all of that means the bill will "likely" have the override, but I'm just basing that opinion off what you've said so far.
No worries. We're almost certain to have a GOP WH next go around and I'm sure we will be bombing Iran. And if not, Netanyahu's tweekin in Israel, and he's sure to get the job done.

Now you're talkin'.

I'm suspicious about that head-count when it's that close.
Tells me the votes aren't based on doing the right thing but rather a balance between saving their own ass and protecting Obama's.
Looks like those that will be up for election on the Demo Team.....has a whole lot to worry about then. Not only with this issue.....but also with those Democrats that were about selling out Israel. Seems their careers in politics will be coming to an end.
The first question to Hillary when she declares should be exactly how she intends to handle a nuclear Iran.
Mornin HB. :2wave: I hear she might announce this weekend.....and try to steal Rubios thunder for his announcement, Monday. But with Hillary.....she will make sure no other dirt is coming out on her to announce that day. Right when she announces in front of the camera. We should have a Fed Ex delivery driver deliver her a subpenoa to testify before Congress. Be awesome see them Run up and hand her the Document.
We are going to luv destroying that Bitch and this time, we plan to make her head, hurt!!!!!
Meanie.
Cmon now.....it is in the Best Interest of the Country. Just sayin. :mrgreen:
Hope you're planning on serving a little herbal tea with that subpoena. With honey - Italian honey. Otherwise, you're just throwing fuel on the GOP Wah on Wimmens.
Exactly Anthony :2wave:.....as it is clear about one thing when it comes to Iran. Democrats were always weak on the issue, Democrats show they are still weak on the Issue, and that they really don't have any idea how to handle Foreign Affairs.
Absolute ****ing failures that should have to suffer consequences for the fools they always have been.
Nah, I have been calling some I know in the Media and questioning why are they laying off the WH being hacked via State Dept Computers. Knowing Hillary's Private server and email was hacked. That they can't give her any break on this. Country comes first not Hillary.
I was trying to get the point across about any reporters trying to give cover and how they will be played, with more dirt to coming out on the matter. I emphasized especially with who gets on the Morning Political talk shows. Some didn't like it, some don't care, a couple of a few are on board. Would luv to get a scoop.

Simpleχity;1064511185 said:Iran will only sign nuclear deal if sanctions lifted 'same day': Rouhani
Four days ago I wrote this:
Rouhani is in a difficult position. On the day the framework agreement was announced, jubilant and cheering crowds gathered all over Iran. The Iranian population of 80 million is young. 42% of Iranians are under the age of 25. Sequestration from the international community has affected them profoundly. They were madly cheering because they expect to see and experience tangible results from any nuclear agreement. They expect more job prospects, a higher standard of living, and higher wages. And if all this betterment doesn't materialize very soon, the regime is in trouble ... and could even fall. Which is why Rouhani is demanding that all sanctions end immediately once a final agreement is signed.
However, I cannot personally support any final agreement in which all nuclear-related sanctions (UN/US/EU) are terminated immediately. No P5+5 nation should even fleetingly consider such a concession. Sanctions should only be lifted in timed tranches and based on optimum performance and total compliance.
It'll come eventually. I've said from the start of this that her mail was hacked. There's no way it wasn't by the usual suspects, given that the Romanian guy got in so easily. The production of her server isn't even necessary. She's going to try to get ahead of this mess, but there are just too many intersections that can be opened nobody could anticipate - even the Clintons and their team. That, among other things, will dog her throughout her campaign. Besides, I don't think the public is ready for another liar. Obama fooled many. Hillary doesn't have the luxury of anonymity.
So anti American, calling all democrats ****ing failures and fools.
