1. Meaningless congress critter drama
spyguy ,   seattle usa   (08.03.15)
The BOTTOM LINE everyone seems to ignore is the multi-lateral agreement is between the ~200 countries of the UN and Iran , NOT a bilateral agreement between the USA and Iran. What the USA does is totally meaningless. Here is what will happen if the USA congress critters kill the USA involvement: NOTHING. The WORTHLESS USA sanctions put in place in 1979 will continue, but all the other sanctions on Iran will disappear and the whole world except for the USA and Israel will trade freely with Iran. If the congress critters try to use the global banking system or trade restrictions to punish countries, the world will respond by moving banking to the new Chinese international trade bank and other countries will punish USA companies for every trade restriction the USA puts in place. I suspect that very quickly Google, GM, IBM, HP, etc will be stringing up every congress critter and whacking them with metal baseball bats. Congress should just tell Bibi to shut up and go away and cancel all the meetings on Iran and actually do stuff Americans want them to do. For example, the Highway bill still has not passed.
2. Tell your senator to oppose the Iran deal

This is a very dangerous deal that makes billions available to Ira to continue sponsoring terrorism & to continue clandestine work on a nuclear bomb. The agreement even allows Iran to do the testing of soil samples itself. If you're American, write to your senator & tell him to oppose this deal. AIPAC has a petition you can sign.

5. # 4G-d left DC when obama entered.
BUILD BABY BUILD!!!   (08.07.15)
However, He intends to return after obama has left. I pray America not pay for obama's sins and cursing Israel. G-d chose Israel, America made a terrible mistake twice voting for obama who abhors both Israel and Netanyahu. Now, Americans hate obama.. with damned good reason he's an idiot who believes himself a gawd... We all know better. KEEP BUILDING !!
