He has accomplished so much! And the Iran deal is the latest! Dick Durbin (D)(IL)(historic) on Rachel. (y)

And PS, #FUCKCheneythatwarmongerer

Old article, but he did it!

“Congressional rejection of this deal leaves any U.S. administration that is absolutely committed to preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon with one option, another war in the Middle East. I say this not to be provocative, I am stating a fact,” Obama said.

“So let’s not mince words. The choice we face is ultimately between diplomacy or some form of war. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not three months from now, but soon.”

Significance of this victory cant be overstated. Our side was Obama and a large, diversity coalition. The other side was 2-4 billionaires...
