Don't get me wrong, I don't love the deal, nor does the Obama administration.  But the idea that the deal somehow puts them closer to a nuclear weapon than if we just left things the way they are is just, simply, false.  20 pages in, I'm pretty sure we've covered that ground before.

 

And I'm sick of us going it alone, BTW.  The British, French, Germans, Chinese and Russians don't want a nuclear Iran any more than we do.  Let's hang with them for a few years, let the Mullahs die off, and show a new generation of Iranians just how awesome and cool we are.

 

Maybe in time, they will forgive us for engineering the 1953 coup of their freely elected government, and we can forgive them for their chicken-(you know what) hostage taking in 1980.

A lot of people in favor of the deal don't like the deal. That's the part the opponents are missing here. They think (ignorantly) they could have gotten a perfect deal as if we conducted these negotiations on our own. They could not have but it's a great talking about to scream about how loud it is.

 

I would also be interested in how this 150 billion that keeps coming up was solely in our possession and if we back out of the deal and the rest of countries sign off on it (they will) how much gets released. I am going to guess all of it regardless of what happens in congress.
