They were not only out of line they were in criminal violation of the Logan act. It is too bad Holder didn't make the prosecution of the 47 his pre retirement project. Perhaps it will be the first action of our new AG, it is time to take the gloves off with these un-American bottom feeders.

Was it not Mark Twain who said, "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel" ?


No. It was Samuel Johnson.

From the April 27 issue (page 19) of The New Yorker -- a magazine known the world over for its extremely careful fact checking:

"During the early nineteen thirties, Bolivia and Paraguay fought a war over an arid borderland called Chaco Boreal. Congress passed a resolution permitting President Franklin Roosevelt to impose an embargo an arms shipment to both countries, and he did. Prosecutors later charged the Curtiss-Wright Export Corporation with running guns to Bolivia. The company challenged the resolution, but, in 1936, the Supreme Court issued a thumping endorsement of a President's prerogative to lead foreign policy. 'In this vast external realm, with its important, complicated, delicate and manifold problems,' the majority wrote, only the President 'has the power to speak or listen as a representative of the nation ....He alone negotiates.' In this respect, the Justices added, Congress is 'powerless.'"

According to this precedent from the Supreme Court, it is clear that the 47 Republicans who sent the now infamous letter to Iran were legally out of line.

If "he alone negotiates" then why is John Kerry doing the negotiations ? :roll: :roll: :roll: :-(

I am surprised you admitted Twain said something. You and Potus generally take credit for saying anything as long as you bozos pecieve it seems liberal or anti GOP.

I bet you loved it when the Supreme Court (wrongly) upheld the Presidential victory of W. Bush !

I bet if you had been there back then you would have cheered for the Dred Scott decision, too.

They sure were! In case you're looking for a definition of that behavior, we call it, "Patriotism." When Obama does it, he calls it "an Executive Order." It's all semantics.


If I remember correctly they never sent any letter to anybody but merely posted the letter on their web page and signed it.
