What A Difference A Day Makes

++The Iranian nuclear deal is lowdown in written form as much of the brush has been cleared away.

++The Senate now has postponed the bill for additional sanctions to sometime after their upcoming  Spring break.

++Bibi had to go on all the American networks to swear he really is for a two state solution while no one is buying it. President Obama did congratulate him for "winning a plurality in the Knesset" but the White House is livid about Bibi's stance on the two-state solution.

++Republicans are still trying to find out why President Obama isn't acting as a lame duck--yet. If their Tehran Letter didn't blow up like a trick cigar,there budget is igniting a huge inter-party war.

++Basically the US' position is that our military and intelligence programs with Israel remain the same. They are guaranteed a ten-year deal. Only now the United States is mulling over its stance at the United Nations. All the hubbub about our relationship with Israel is rather moot at this point but we'll learn the price of Bibi's games later. The New York Times and Washington Post played "kiss and make-up" today in their editorials and op-eds. But in fact no one has to do anything.

++I want to know where the authorization of military force comes in. The noise in town is that the Senate can't figure out whom we are at war with. Hence the delay in the vote on war.
