While controversy continues to swirl violently around the open letter to Iran by 47 Republican senators, the signatures of four of the Senators, Rand Paul (R – KY), Marco Rubio (R – FL), Ted Cruz (R – TX), and Lindsey Graham (R – SC), all presidential hopefuls with eyes on the 2016 primary, has sparked a response.
Governors Bobby Jindal (LA) and Rick Perry (TX), two other potential candidates, are throwing their own support behind the potentially treasonous letter, seemingly so they don’t get left out.
The determination of the would-be candidates to be part of this letter is not coincidental, as it comes just a week after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pushed Congress to sabotage the Iran deal, and the letter is a clear effort to do exactly that.
Also uncoincidentally, the largest donor to Netanyahu’s reelection campaign, casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, is also a big target donor for Republican candidates. Adelson’s outspoken opponent to diplomacy with Iran is likely fueling a lot of this effort, as politicians in Israel and the US both court his deep pockets with grandiose efforts to sabotage the Iran talks.
They are our Cruzaders.

The big money corruption of our government is becoming more apparent and deadly every day. The fact the a man who has made his fortune from people gambling their money away against his own religion is proof that we have lost our way.
The reason I left the Republican Party is that I have lost confidence in their ideology and even handed, fair minded policies that support the hard working, self reliant and responsible citizens of our country. We prefer peaceful coexistence to mindless war and destruction. Our country has been hijacked and lost it's way in the international community. The fact that mr. Adelson is allowed to spend untold millions of dollars to pursue his ill advised agenda at the expense of the well being of the unsuspecting and uninformed American people is unconscionable and borders on treason. The politicians who line up behind this evil undertaking should be more than ashamed of themselves. Their self interest and personal gain take priotity over the unsuspecting, ill informed masses who voted them into office. Utterly disgraceful!
