Obama: I'll Make Case to American People After Iran Deal Is Made
Weekly Standard ^ | 9 March 2015 | DANIEL HALPER

Posted on 03/09/2015 2:40:47 PM PDT by SkyPilot

President Obama will wait until after a nuclear deal with Iran is made to make the case to the American people that it's the right thing to do. He made the comment today after being asked about this letter from nearly 50 U.S. senators to Iran, which stated, "The next president could revoke such an executive agreement with the stroke of a pen and future Congresses could modify the terms of the agreement at any time."

A member of the press asked Obama, "Can you comment on the Republican letter to Iran? Can you comment on that?"

"I think it's somewhat ironic to see some members of Congress wanting to make common cause with the hardliners in Iran. It's an unusual coalition," Obama told the reporter.

"I think what we’re going to focus on right now is actually seeing whether we can get a deal or not. And once we do -- if we do -- then we’ll be able to make the case to the American people, and I'm confident we’ll be able to implement..."

Just impeach already. Tell the world that it isn’t Obama’s black half being impeached, it’s his muslim half.

Barack Obama is the worst negotiator in American history. He always goes in desperate for a deal, he telegraph's what he will give away for nothing, usually gives concessions unilaterally in the (misguided) hope that the other side will be overwhelmed by his goodwill and will reciprocate. He never has the proper interested parties in the loop, usually negotiates with bad guys who are almost certain to renege on their end of the bargain before the ink is dry, AND his goals are invariably detrimental to American interests. Furthermore, he has no intention to make a case, he intends to ram any deal down America's throat.

We have to get the signature of the Iranian Mullahs before we the American People can know what is in it.....

That is the way Iranian born Valerie Jarrett and Barry Hussein Barack Soetoro Obama want it.


I have very, very little hope that Obama will be stopped. It seems as if the country and our government have either gone mad, or they are under a Satanic spell.

It appears to me that the prophecy in Isaiah 17 has a very good chance of being fulfilled very soon.

I see an Iranian proxy attack using Islamic Radicals (in either Gaza or Syria) being launched against Israel. Israel will respond.

Isaiah 17 - A Prophecy Against Damascus

17 A prophecy against Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins.

2 The cities of Aroer will be deserted and left to flocks, which will lie down, with no one to make them afraid.

3 The fortified city will disappear from Ephraim, and royal power from Damascus; the remnant of Aram will be like the glory of the Israelites,” declares the Lord Almighty.

4 “In that day the glory of Jacob will fade; the fat of his body will waste away.

5 It will be as when reapers harvest the standing grain, gathering the grain in their arms— as when someone gleans heads of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

6 Yet some gleanings will remain, as when an olive tree is beaten, leaving two or three olives on the topmost branches, four or five on the fruitful boughs,” declares the Lord, the God of Israel.

7 In that day people will look to their Maker and turn their eyes to the Holy One of Israel.

8 They will not look to the altars, the work of their hands, and they will have no regard for the Asherah poles and the incense altars their fingers have made.

9 In that day their strong cities, which they left because of the Israelites, will be like places abandoned to thickets and undergrowth. And all will be desolation.

10 You have forgotten God your Savior; you have not remembered the Rock, your fortress. Therefore, though you set out the finest plants and plant imported vines,

11 though on the day you set them out, you make them grow, and on the morning when you plant them, you bring them to bud, yet the harvest will be as nothing in the day of disease and incurable pain.

12 Woe to the many nations that rage— they rage like the raging sea! Woe to the peoples who roar— they roar like the roaring of great waters!

13 Although the peoples roar like the roar of surging waters, when he rebukes them they flee far away, driven before the wind like chaff on the hills, like tumbleweed before a gale.

14 In the evening, sudden terror! Before the morning, they are gone! This is the portion of those who loot us, the lot of those who plunder us.

Wow! - The perfect Alinsky-esque reply to the reporter. Valerie must have been writing and re-writing that retort for a week now.

He’s delusional. He needs to make his case to Congress and that’s not going to happen. The Iranians are in for a lot of disappointment.

The Democrat mantra -

1. Fire
2. Ready
3. Aim

Sign it, don’t read it, and praise its virtues.

Howe do these people manage to remember to breathe?

He can call it whatever he wants to call it. It won’t mean anything once he’s out of office.

We used to have an African-American man in one of my Bible studies. He was a good guy, and we were friends. But he constantly defended Obama, no matter what. Even through the most egregious crimes. He left the Bible study about 3 years ago. I asked a friend about him last month, and someone said he does not go to church anymore either, does not have any Christian fellowship, and seems to have lost his faith.

I would say be very careful what you defend and worship, because is if isn't the Truth, then Satan's trap for you succeeded.

If the Mullah’s get nukes and a delivery system, you can bet we’ll be nuked on the west coast. If that happens we’re all screwed and it’ll be too late to point fingers and blame.
Iran wants a caliphate and by God we’re gonna give it to em. Literally.

And the sheeple will fall for that again?

Wow! - The perfect Alinsky-esque reply to the reporter. Valerie must have been writing and re-writing that retort for a week now.

Yup - right out of the handbook (which Alinsky dedicated to Satan, by the way).

1. "Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have."

2. "Never go outside the expertise of your people. When an action or tactic is outside the experience of the people, the result is confusion, fear and retreat.... [and] the collapse of communication.

3. "Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy. Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.)

4. "Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules. You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity."

5. "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage."

6. "A good tactic is one your people enjoy."

7. "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag. Man can sustain militant interest in any issue for only a limited time...."

8. "Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose."

9. "The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself."

10. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign."

11. "If you push a negative hard and deep enough, it will break through into its counterside... every positive has its negative."

12. "The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative."

13. Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.
