Its rather astonishing. she said today she will not allow iran to have a nuclear weapon as president. these are exactly the words that obama used in 08 and used it in 12 to cheering applause when he never meant it. and when she says we have to pile pressure on iran after the deal is done, not allow it to operate in the region, the deal is giving iran a signing bonus of $100 billion. its allowing it to get all kinds of import arms and does nothing to curtail iran except strengthen it so it can sp...
