Btw, didn't you get the libtard memo? It says in case of emergency always blame Bush, not Reagan.

If Jimmy the Peanut hadn't dropped the ball in 1979 we definitely wouldn't be in the same situation today.

The GOP wanted this move. If they didn't, all it would have taken was Mitch McConnell appointing a handful of Republicans to a Gang of Eight, or Posse of Ten, or Assemblage of Six to negotiate it down again, as they've done time and time again. There were no backroom deals, no cloakroom negotiations, as had been the case on so many other occasions.
But they see manifold advantages to this move: they can clamor to the media of the dictatorial powers of Harry Reid and by extension, Barack Obama; they can feed the anger and confirm the bias of their base with that self-same gnashing to their base who sees anything other than total obstruction as being a traitor to the party; and they can also get out of any kind of responsibility for that lack of obstruction. Plus for all those fabled centrists that are sick of government gridlock, they can take credit for things moving again.
Win-win-win for them.

Consider this view (from this morning):
"I am disappointed by the terms of the agreement," Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said in a statement. "It was strong sanctions, not the goodness of the hearts of the Iranian leaders, that brought Iran to the table, and any reduction relieves the psychological pressure of future sanctions and gives them hope that they will be able to gain nuclear weapon capability while further sanctions are reduced."
Now I would hardly paint Chuck Schumer as a warhawk right wing teabagger would you?
It appears that sending a known traitor (Kerry) to negotiate on our nations behalf with our sworn enemies in Iran wasn't really such a bright idea.

This guy loved to "negotiate".
The Mullas in Iran will line you against the wall for not following their edicts as quickly as the adversary's that were faced at that point in time.

Persian, Arabs, Afghans, etc. the important point is do you really think you can make peace with them? They have a religion that says its okay to lie to infidels (thats us) and even sign treaties. They mean nothing to them because we are infidels. Like World War II, we can probably tolerate Germans but not Nazis. We can live with some muslims but if they turn out to be Islamofascists then the best thing is to kill them. Iran is the center of terrorism in the middle east, they've killed our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, they've taken British sailors off the high seas, they've kidnapped American tourists and held them without cause, they hold an American cleric whose family is from Iran, and they are threatening to create a nuclear weapon in which they can attack Israel or the US forces in the theater or blackmail Saudi Arabia. Obama just didn't kiss Iranian ass, he rimmed the asshole.

Why did Obama abandon sanctions?
They were the best chance fir peaceful regime. And policy change in Iran.

Apparently there is no enforcement mechanisms, penalties or "red lines."
BTW, tell an Iranian that he's an Arab and see what kinda reaction you get.
O, where have you gone, HTowner, a lowly forum turns its eyes to you?
