Elections have consequences. And we lost 2012, so Iran gets to have billions of dollars and become a nuke factory for the terrorist Middle East.
From NBC News:
Tehran has been negotiating with the U.S., Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China for years, with diplomats extending a series of deadlines in hopes of arriving at a workable plan.
The deal overcame stiff opposition from close U.S. allies like Israel and Saudi Arabia, who say Iran cannot be trusted with a nuclear program of any kind.
After marathon overnight negotiations in Vienna, diplomats clinched the comprehensive agreement — the text of which runs more than 80 pages.
It involves limiting Iran’s nuclear production for 10 years and Tehran’s access to nuclear fuel and equipment for 15 years in return for hundreds of millions of dollars in sanctions relief. However, the sanctions would not be lifted until Iran proves to the International Atomic Energy Agency that it has met its obligations under the terms of the deal.
Here are some initial reactions from the Twitters:

This deal with #Iran is very bad news and as far as Israel is concerned we know how to defend ourselves and prevent another Holocaust.

Yeah we’re all screwed. The only way to stop it is the Congress, but nothing in the past six years should assure at all that the Republicans will grow a spine and block this. I would say it’s a done deal.
May God have mercy on us all.
