Despite even prominent Democrats turning against Obama’s Iran deal, Obama is once again characterizing Republican opposition to his proposals as non-substantive:
WASHINGTON TIMES – President Obama said he’s comfortable moving forward with the Iranian nuclear deal even if majorities in the House and Senate reject the accord.
“Unfortunately, a large portion of the Republican Party, if not a near unanimous portion of Republican representatives, are going to be opposed to anything that I do,” Mr. Obama said in an interview with NPR released Monday. “And I have not oftentimes based that on a judgment on the merits, but have based that on their politics.”
Mr. Obama told NPR’s Steve Inskeep that the critics of the deal will be proven wrong over time, as Iran’s nuclear facilities are partially dismantled.
“When this agreement is implemented and we’ve seen centrifuges coming out of facilities like Fordow and Natanz, and we’ve got inspectors on the ground and it becomes clear that Iran in fact is abiding by this agreement, then attitudes will change, because people will recognize that, in fact, whatever parade of horribles was presented in opposition have not come true,” the president said.
Um…the U.S. is not allowed to have any inspectors ‘on the ground’, so I’m not sure what Obama is talking about. Clearly just more lies designed to fool the American people.
