It's time we start identifying the Senators from the "Treasonous GOP 47" who will be up for election in 2016. I know that one of my senators, Rob Portman, is up for election and I will be doing everything I can to be sure the citizens of Ohio know that he is a traitor!!! Now is the time to hammer these traitors and defeat them and send them into permanent retirement!

(10,168 posts)My Senator, Ron "Sunspot" Johnson, signed so I will be working against him in 2016. We just got news that Russ Feingold is seriously considering running for his old Senate seat in 2016, the one that Johnson took in the 2010 Teabagger takeover! We sure hope it's true.

(30,058 posts)Cronyn says this morning Obama doesn't speak for America, he will be getting a letter today telling him he and the other 46 do not speak for America. This has to be one of the dumbest things they could do. Talk about the lack of foreign experience, shameful these elected official have stopped so low. I used to think McCain had some common sense but after Palin and this one it shows he doesn't use good judgement.

(41 posts)This story bores me; primarily because there's actually not that much daylight between the Republicans and the President on the issue of foreign policy as it pertains to Iran. Both sides, the White House and the Republicans in Congress, are hardliners. By Pres. Obama's own admission, he's imposed the toughest sanctions on Iran to date and crippled their economy. As we saw with Iraq in the nineties, sanctions primarily hurt the poorest citizens in the country that they're imposed upon. Pres. Obama, like Pres. Bush before him, and like Republicans in Congress, see Iran as a grave threat to world peace and to Israel's security. Ironically enough, international polling found in 2013 that United States, with Obama as its head of state, was the greatest threat to world peace.
