Who in their right mind doesn't like Tom Cotton?? If you're one of the deranged that does - please tell me why - and dont just say 'because he's a Republican.'

'Corruption Of Blood Bill'

Anyone trying to pass a bill even close to the moral equivalent of this piece of work makes me question their ability with sound judgement and reason.

We are a conservative state but I think this board has its share of liberals. Reminds me of my professors in school. Hell I can't think of a conservative in the whole bunch.

I hadn't heard about that one. He really is a massive idiot, and he consistently proves that he doesn't understand the Constitution that he purports to hold so dear.

So, when did Cotton commit treason?

Well, its not like HuffPo just created a bill on their own, attached Cottons name, then reported it.

Clearly poorly worded by Cotton but the article is a bit melodramatic or overblown, as is every article by Huffington. Everyone on that committee acknowledged there is a common problem where those sanctioned divert assets to family members to evade sanctions. A consanguinity prosecution is completely unacceptable in the U.S. and overseas but this appears to be very narrowly tailored towards those on the Iranian sanctions lists. Because Cotton brought this up (and he more than once agreed to withdraw it so it could be revised by the attorneys) they may get something passed to cover that gap in the sanctions law.

That proposed amendment did not create gulags where people, US citizens or non- citizens, on US soil would be gathered up and imprisoned. It did not have that scope and is superceded by the constitutional protections already in place.

And no, it is not stupid to question every news source currently available. Hardly any of them are true journalists but have evolved into entertainment platforms pandering to their target audience.

Tom Cotton is melodramatic and over the top.

I am still curious about this. This is the true conversation I want to have.

You won't get any factual responses from the Liberals because they are too brainwashed and ignorant to know what's really going on. According to reports, the "agreement" President Barry Soetoro, aka President Hussein Obama and his minions have proposed to Iran would let Iran develop all components of a nuclear bomb for ten years but they wouldn't be allowed to actually develop a nuclear bomb during that time but after 10 years, all bets are off.

Only the most simple minded person can believe Iran would actually live up to any "deal and just a little research would expose exactly what Iran's intentions are. I would start by looking at the political beliefs and actions of Obama advisor and confidant Valerie Jarrett and know that she has held several meetings with the Iranian leaders over the past several years. The below link provides some information on Jarrett.

Additionally, all anyone has to do to understand Iran's intentions is do a little research on Ahmadinejad, & the 12th Imam. Below is a link and excerpts from the article about the 12th Iman.

LINK

Article excerpts: The Twelver beliefs have raised concern in conjunction with Iran's steeped interest in furiously pressing forward with its nuclear program, combined with threats against Israel and the West. Critics of the Islamic Republic allege that Ahmadinejad and the supreme leader would even go so far as to hasten a nuclear showdown and cataclysmic strike -- perhaps an attack on Israel and inevitable retaliation -- to hasten the arrival of the 12th Imam. Ahmadinejad has even called for the reappearance of the 12th Imam from the podium of the United Nations General Assembly. During his speeches within Iran, Ahmadinejad has said that the main mission of the Islamic Revolution is to pave the way for the reappearance of the 12th Imam.

Anybody who attacks Cotton and the others over the letter sent to Iran are just too ignorant to even have an opinion on the subject. Those Senators did exactly what they needed to be done explaining to the terrorist state of Iran that any "agreement" and "treaty" negotiated in this process MUST be ratified by the Senate. Something President Soetoro desperately wants to avoid.

I'll leave it up to you do decide why Obama and his minions are so willing to give Iran nuclear capabilities and circumvent the Senate in doing so but all one has to do is research Obama's past and his current actions against the United States to understand his motives.

All I can say is THANK GOD for Senator Tom Cotton and those willing to stand up to traitor we currently have as president. Don't believe Obama is a traitor? Just check out the link below listing the 93 article of impeachment against Obama. But, I fully expect the ignorant Liberals to fully ignore the facts and stick to their talking points of the day. That's all they know.

Hey guys, remember when Cotton opposed aid to victims of Hurricane Sandy? No?
