I don't think any aspirations of Senators coming up with their own treaty or trying to back stab the President of the United States with foreign nations is a good idea, when this job is clearly defined for the President. If the Kennedy thing was true and could be verified to actually had happened, not just the conversation that was documented by the Russians which was unclassified but then reclassified and could have been propaganda.... then you are darn right it WAS WRONG, WRONG , WRONG of Kennedy.As far as the Kennedy thing....
This was written by a man who wrote a book....he says he had USSR classified documents that showed this conversation between the two russians... I clicked on the link for the document that this author has put up just recently to show he had one, but guess what, the LINK did not work or was taken down, so I could not see this verification this author claimed he had?
No one believed it at the time his book was written, no one believed it when the author tried to bring it up again after Kennedy had died, and no one believes him now either.... not so much that they think the author made this up, but they dont believe the document of conversation as being true or accurate and perhaps propaganda on the USSR's part. the Russians have since reclassified the documents so no one can verify it in the present day...
Oh, ok. I remember reading about it in the newspapers back then. There were several other instances where senators have had their own treaty aspirations that differed from the current president at the time. I guess those were all fine. This one is different though, right?
Steph, you post an article from someone who is regurgitating the lie about Pelosi, and the unverified stuff on Kennedy, and expect us to take this author in any kind of serious matter is laughable!stop letting this DNC lamestream drive things to also distract you off what this administration is DOING.....YOU voted in Republicans for control OF Congress. FOR A REASON

Anatomy Of A Smear: The Media Vs. Republican Senators On Iran Letter
March 11, 2015 By Mollie Hemingway
This week, a group of Republican senators led by Tom Cotton of Arkansas (pictured above, with a kitten, in Iraq) issued a very brief open letter to the leaders of Iran explaining the differences between mere executive agreements and international treaties ratified by the Senate. It’s a fairly basic letter that includes reminders about the Constitutional system under which we operate. I couldn’t begin to speculate why, but the media lost their collective minds over this letter. Along with other Democrats and progressive activists. You can read the breathless, outraged, totally-over-the-top headlines if you’d like to see this melt-down in action.
Now, that’s fine. That’s their business. To be completely honest, and not that you care, I’m not the biggest fan of such letters myself. I mean, they’re not as bad as Nancy Pelosi going to Syria to undermine Bush’s foreign policy, Jimmy Carter helping North Korea get nuclear weapons, Ted Kennedy secretly asking the Soviets to interfere in the 1984 election or any of the many other interjections we’ve seen, but I think it’s generally a good idea to yield to the president on foreign negotiations, even if it’s a really bad president who couldn’t negotiate his way out of a paper bag if the stakes involved, oh I don’t know, going ahead with Iran as a nuclear power
all of it here:
Anatomy Of A Smear The Media Vs. Republican Senators On Iran Letter
Hmm, yet another liberal thread that starts by lying about a Republican and then bashing him for it.The newly elected Senator from Arkansas, Cotton, famously likes to remind people that everyone Ivy League is better than everyone else.
I actively support and agree with your outrage against U.S. Senators sending letters of support to enemies of this country who are threatening us with nuclear weapons.So recently, in foreign relations, he wrote a letter.
Well except the whole thing about a treaty requires approval of the senate or it is null and void.Kerry quite emphatically said that the Senate 47 can squat and shit on the Capitol steps and yet be able do nothing legally about any agreement between the executives of Iran and the USA.
Senators can shit until the go blind; they can't do anything to interfere with it.
Bwhahahaah thats the funniest thing I have read all day,thanks for the chuckle!!What is easily understood is that I am a mainstream Republican and you are a far right reactionary.It's been explained by libs to cons, but you just don't understand it. That's your problem: you don't get it, RGS.
What is easily understood is that you are not the conservative you've long claimed to be.

Sigh. Hint: there is no treaty. We don't have an embassy or diplomatic relations with Iran. Obama and mullahs can play hoops and there is nothing anyone can do anything about it. The two executives can sign an agreement, and the Senate can do nothing.Well except the whole thing about a treaty requires approval of the senate or it is null and void.Kerry quite emphatically said that the Senate 47 can squat and shit on the Capitol steps and yet be able do nothing legally about any agreement between the executives of Iran and the USA.

Why do you always have to inform the world when your tampon is leaking again?Snowden is a hero of the right dummy. Putin too. And anything that damages America while Obama's in the White House.Funny many on the left consider Edward Snowden a hero but Tom Cotton a traitor the liberal mindst is a truly fascinating thing.
When your enemies are eating themselves alive....pass them the salt.Thank God treason is rigidly defined in the US Constitution under Article 3, Section 3, otherwise merely disagreeing with the Usurper would be considered treason.
Wrong, The Senate MUST approve any foreign deal Obama makes as per the Constitution.Sigh. Hint: there is no treaty. We don't have an embassy or diplomatic relations with Iran. Obama and mullahs can play hoops and there is nothing anyone can do anything about it. The two executives can sign an agreement, and the Senate can do nothing.Well except the whole thing about a treaty requires approval of the senate or it is null and void.Kerry quite emphatically said that the Senate 47 can squat and shit on the Capitol steps and yet be able do nothing legally about any agreement between the executives of Iran and the USA.

They can be charged under the Logan Act, as could have Jane Fonda, but they won't. You don't want to believe it, go for it.
