ZitatSen. Chris Coons (D-Del.), a member of the Foreign Relations Committee, said Congress should expect the Iranians to cheat under the nuclear agreement.
“I think the Congress has a critical role to play in the oversight of the implementation of this deal. As I’ve said both at the University of Delaware and the Carnegie Endowment, after coming to a decision to support the deal, it’s with some real concerns. I think there are some real challenges in the short term, the middle term and the long term in how this deal plays out if in fact it’s fully implemented. We can expect the Iranians to cheat,” said Coons at the Washington Ideas Forum.
“They have a long history of cheating both in flagrant ways and marginal ways. We can expect them to use some of the proceeds of sanctions relief to try and fund terrorist organizations in the region and to promote destabilizing activities. We can foresee in 10-15 years their having industrial-scale enrichment capability that is significantly threatening to the stability of the region and the world,” he added.
Coons stressed that Congress must remain engaged in the situation with Iran over a long period of time to restrain or deter harmful actions.
Congress must stay engaged "to restrain or deter harmful actions"? Such as voting for agreements which they know will be violated? Something somewhere just doesn't seem quite right here.
We're going to agree to the deal, even if we know they're going to cheat? Folks, you just can't fix this magnitude of stupid.
========================================================================================== By the way, I'm growing rather weary of the cheap comparisons of Obama with Neville Chamberlain. The British Prime Minister got the biggest issue of the day wrong. But no one ever doubted that he loved his country. That's why, after his eviction from Downing Street, Churchill kept him on in his ministry as Lord President of the Council, and indeed made Chamberlain part of the five-man war cabinet and had him chair it during his frequent absences.
When he [Chamberlain} died of cancer in October 1940, Churchill wept over his coffin.
So please don't insult Neville Chamberlain by comparing him to Obama. -- Mark Steyn"

Yeah, it almost seems to go beyond stupid, doesn't it?

Let us not forget that we have Karl Rove to thank for Coons. Rove sabotaged Coons' opponent because she was a conservative who dared defeat one of Rove's chosen ones. Rove wanted Castle, the voters wanted O'Donnell, so Rove called her a "witch."

"Machiavellianism is "cunning and duplicity".[1] The word comes from the Italian Renaissance diplomat and writer Niccolò Machiavelli, who wrote Il Principe (The Prince), among other works.
In modern psychology, Machiavellianism is one of the dark triad personalities, characterized by a duplicitous interpersonal style, a cynical disregard for morality and a focus on self-interest and personal gain.[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machiavellianism "
Rove is one of the chief reasons I've pretty much quit watching FOX. It seems it doesn't matter which show you put on - Greta, BOR, Megyn or Sean - there he is. With his primary school white board.
They call Karl Rove "the architect" - apparently because of his "stellar" performance in putting together a popular vote defeat for his boss, Dubyah, against the fool AlGore. It was only due to the SCOTUS that Mr. Carbon Credits was denied the White House.
If Rove can be credited for being the architect of anything, it will be the Obama Library.

And, if it's not Rove, it's Geraldo. I can't/won't watch either one.
