In the event of an anti-Iran Deal veto override, Obama could simply ignore Congress — 9 Comments

  1. As I have commented here many times here, there is less than zero chance that Obama will be impeached. He’s completely immune from that constitutional check and balance because he is “the historic first black president.”

    And because Hillary would have historic first woman president immunity (and also because she is a criminal), she should not be elected. She would be an American Queen only restrained by what she thinks she can get away with.

    Hillary Clinton must be defeated.
    Carthage must be destroyed.

  2. Cornhead:

    I completely agree that Obama will not be impeached no matter what he does.

    However, I don’t think the chances are “less than zero.” I think they are about .05%. In the case of his ignoring a veto override, I think it increases to about 2%. Here’s why. If the veto is overriden, it would mean that already 2/3 of the Senate doesn’t want the Iran deal. If he were to ignore their wishes, that is a very direct challenge to their power. If they’ve already voted 2/3 against him on the override, 2/3 of them might (huge accent on the “might”) decide they’ve had enough of him poaching on their territory.

  3. The talk about US/Iran deal taking long and conflicting views.

    Whatever what is done in the end Israel should be the core of that deal specially in very troubling region:

    But it’s time to get past all that. Even absent a deal with Iran, Israel’s strategic environment has changed. If in the past, Israel was surrounded by states, now it is surrounded in no small measure by non-state actors like Hezbullah in what is nominally Lebanon, Jubhat al-Nusrah in what was formerly Syria, Hamas in Gaza and Ansar Beit Makdas, a self-proclaimed affiliate of ISIS in the Egyptian Sinai Desert. This alone requires more U.S.-Israel security coordination.

  4. The fact that Brad Sherman, Democrat member of the House, is discussing how Obama could circumvent the law shows that the Democrats are fully aware that Obama is a rogue president. The fact that they have gone along with him shows that they are equally culpable with him.

  5. We have an “elected King” – the Great Republic is dead. This is only more evidence that F H Buckley is correct.

  6. I don’t think the issue is as difficult as it is made out: whether it passes or not, Obama will enact US participation by executive order and say he had to do it because it is in the nation’s interest. The true believers will nod like a bunch of bobble-heads; the passionate antis will cite the number of days until Jan 20th, 2017. I wrote a column for the National Security Forum on the agreement itself. Google National Security Forum and scroll down to the second article.

    “Evil has always been immune to weaklings.”

    Not bad.
