Huckleberry Graham is leading from behind:
U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham said in Jerusalem that the Senate will vote on an Iran sanctions bill next month.
Graham (R-S.C.), who is expected to take over as chairman of the Foreign Appropriations Subcommittee when the Republicans assume control of the Senate in January, met with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Israeli capital on Saturday night.
Graham told Netanyahu that “the Congress will follow your lead” and will want to have a say about any final deal.
Young Turks has more:
I’m so old I remember when right wingers, including Graham, railed against any judge even referencing a foreign law in their opinions. But outsourcing the leadership on an important national security issue to a foreign leader is a-ok. Good to know.
I suspect that if say, Harry Reid were to tell Japan’s leader that the Congress would follow his lead, the right wing might just get a little bit agitated. In fact, they’d say he committed treason.
