[jwoodie]

No.
Absolutely not. CONSPICUOUSLY not.

"1. It is designed to tie the hands of the next President and Congress." jw

No!
That's completely false, on many levels!

a) We might pretend Obama is an al Qaida mole-agent, whose ONLY mission is to destroy the United States of America. Fine! Obviously so.
BUT !!!
This arrangement is between Iran and SIX other nations. For your paranoid theory to be true, they'd ALL have to be in on the conspiracy.
Ockham's Razor: that's not likely!

b) The U.N. Security Council has already ACCEPTED it. So this would have to be a conspiracy of global proportions.

c) "Diplomacy is better than war. We should give diplomacy a chance." Senator Rand Paul (R-KY)

d) Majority Leader McConnell (R-KY) has said point blank, this isn't a treaty, the Senate won't ratify it; and it won't survive the first Republican administration.
That's not my position on it.
That's not Secretary Kerry's position on it.
That's not President Obama's position on it.
That's Majority Leader McConnell's position on it.

2. Senate will reject it.
3. Obama will veto.
4. Senate will fail to override.
5. Done deal.

Apparently.

Probably. And the next potus will be impotent to do anything about it, because no other country will impose sanctions, unless Iran does something really stupid and it won't, and unilateral sanctions would only hurt American firms.

The senate could go ahead and reject it. It won't do anything. The other countries involved aren't going to reinstate sanctions just because Americans have a bunch of crazy warmongerers in congress.

Those who say the agreement would not survive the first Republican Administration are full of more shit than all the other shit-filled liars put together.

They are counting on this agreement not passing so the rubes never find out just how full of shit they are. And should that plan fail, they are depending on the fact the rubes have memories like that of goldfish.
