#3 Obama surrendered but Iran will take the money and not accept the terms of the surrender and continue the war. Congress appears fine with this approach, may even point out the economic stimulus of a new arms race.

#4 I just finished writing to my Senators and Representative regarding the "deal." I only wish I had read this PJMedia article first. The phrases: The phrases: "the war is already ON, and we’re paying the Iranians to kill us. You want to pay them even more? Apparently that’s what Obama wants." Certainly gets to the nub of the matter.

#8 Why is this 'deal' not considered treason?

Because, though it's difficult to stomach when a leftist holds the office and engages in acts of utter stupidity such as the present fiasco, the President has rather extraordinarily broad powers to conduct the foreign policy of the US. See e.g., Bill Clinton's signature of the Kyoto Accords which would have had the effect of devastating the US economy.

Besides, criminalizing the official acts (no matter how stupid) of our domestic political opponents (no matter how cretinous) is far into Banana Republic territory. Granted we're already 99% Banana Republic but ....
