Kerry on Iran talks: 'No deal is better than a bad deal'
Dylan Stableford, Yahoo News By Dylan Stableford, Yahoo News 34 minutes ago
Secretary of State John Kerry says the United States is in no rush to reach a deal to halt Iran's nuclear weapons program without being "absolutely certain" it's the right deal.
"President Obama has been crystal clear," Kerry said on NBC's "Meet The Press" Sunday. "Don't rush. We're not in a rush. We need to get the right deal. No deal is better than a bad deal. And we are certainly adhering to that concept."
Kerry's comments come on the heels of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani's assertion that he won't be pushed into a deal.
Nuclear rights "in the international framework, including uranium enrichment, on its soil," Rouhani said, are not negotiable. "For us red lines are not crossable."
On Saturday, Rouhani and other Iran officials lashed out at France, saying the country's representatives for Israel.
"I'd say a number of nations, not just the French, but ourselves and others wanted to make sure that we had the tough language necessary, the clarity in the language necessary to be absolutely certain that we were doing the job and not granting more or doing something sloppily that could wind up a mistake," Kerry said.
"This is serious business," Kerry continued. "And I think every country came there. This is the first time that the P5 had come together with this kind of a serious set of possible options in front of it with a new Iranian government. Remember that this has changed since the election. This is a new overture. And it has to be put to the test very, very carefully."

Please note the spelling, dumBO, to differentiate the homonym from the heroic little pachyderm. And, there is a resemblance to a big eared African.
I am going to add your spelling to my list of synonyms for the Odious One.
