Obama Derangement Syndrome: Sen. Cornyn Responds To News Of A Nuclear Deal With Iran

I was gonna write up something funny about Republicans saying that the nuclear deal with Iran was an attempt by Obama to distract from health care. But reality beat me to the punchline – again.

John Cornyn

Why is it always someone from Texas? So John Cornyn, the number two Republican in the senate, thinks that this deal, that has been in the works for months, was concocted as a scheme to divert attention from a bad news cycle about the Affordable Care Act (aka ObamaCare). And furthermore, Cornyn is seriously asserting that President Obama somehow got Iran, Germany, France, England, Russia, and China to participate in the deception. If Obama could pull that off he would deserve to go down in history for that alone.

The agreement put together by Secretary of State John Kerry is a hardball deal that requires Iran to neutralize existing stockpiles of highly enriched uranium, abandon high-tech centrifuges, cease construction and operations at their plutonium reactor, and consent to intrusive inspections. Plus, it leaves most sanctions in place until Iran demonstrates that it is in compliance. It’s everything on our wishlist, yet this goofball thinks the whole thing is an elaborate distraction from a glitchy website.

I swear, it just doesn’t pay to try to do satire anymore.

  1. I’m sure I’ve commented a time or two concerning the haters of the ACA and how they seemed to get louder the closer we got to the actual implementation of the law—-Gov’t shutdown and debt ceiling threat and all. But it seems they have decided to start saying really stupid things as well, pulling out all the stops if you will. Things like “because the website isn’t perfect that just proves Obamacare sucks.” (Your favorite troll is a perfect example. He doesn’t have anything substantive to say about it so he just says the same thing over and over in a silly attempt to make us regret, I guess, of ever having a progressive bone in our body).

    I still haven’t heard from anyone on the conservative side say exactly why they are against their own plan for healthcare reform. BENGHAZI!!! doesn’t count–just saying.

    There isn’t another substantive, free market idea I’ve heard of that does the things this one does, ie reduce the deficit, create jobs, historically slows the rise in healthcare costs, requires personal responsibility, covers the vast majority of citizens at a lower cost with better coverage and does it using the private insurance industry. (I’d prefer single payer but I’ll take it as a compromise). They even did the most stupid thing of all and put the presidents name on it. Why they insist he get the credit for it is beyond me. They should own it revealing that they do, indeed, have something to offer the American citizens—that they can, in fact, produce substantive policies and thereby increase their chances of getting elected to national office.

    But nooooo. They insist on acting like petulant children (and sounding like them) because they can’t have their way. Not only are they saying things loudly, they are saying stupid things loudly, ensuring we know exactly who is saying the stupid things.

  2. Whatever happened to the loyal opposition in this country!!!

  3. The Republican Party is running on fumes. They are out of any new ideas and have resorted to criticizing their old ones.

  4. They said he would not get health care passed.
    They said he would not get re-elected.
    They said he was weak on terrorism.
    They said he was a muslim.
    They said he was not a christian.
    They said he was a communist,marxist,fascist socialist.
    They said he was not a United States citizen.
    They said he was the most corrupt president in history.
    They said he was an appeaser.
    They said the national media was on his side (excluding FOX and the rest of the right wing propaganda machine).
    Common sense I found not to be so common, would say don’t count this president out.News cycles come and go haters.

  5. Truthiness, the biggest pillar of conservative ideology. Well, right behind money anyways.
