Hey John, Why the Long Face? (Kerry)

As Secretary of State John Kerry frantically tries to reach an appeasement agreement with the Islamic Republic of Iran over Iran’s nuclear weapons program, yes it indeed is a nuclear weapons program, the security of Israel and the United States continue to hang in the balance.

With tomorrow’s deadline rapidly approaching, ‘agreement at all costs’ appears to be the negotiating tactic employed by the United States negotiating team, led by Secretary Kerry.

The Iranians certainly recognize the Obama Administration’s desperation and will exploit to their advantage as much as possible the negotiating weakness on display in Switzerland. Weakness they have also been exploiting in Iraq for the past several months. Or is it American indifference they’ve been exploiting?

Iran considers themselves to hold the upper hand in these negotiations because of the Obama Administration’s seeming anguish over not having a single foreign policy achievement in over six years, and with the Obama presidency coming to an ignoble end in 2016.

First under Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and now under the stewardship of her successor Secretary John Kerry, the Obama State Department hasn’t been able to put together a single diplomatic achievement in over six years.

John Kerry is desperate for a deal...just to have one, just to have that notch on his diplomatic belt, just so he can actually be in the running for a Nobel Peace Prize.

NEVER in my 77 years have I seen such incompetence.
Kerry and odumbo are about to give away this nation while Iran gets everything. It is quite obvious, the U.S. has the most incompetent leaders in the world and half of American’s approve of them. IDIOTS, the whole lot of them INCLUDING both sides of congress and the senate.

The good news is that France seems to be skeptical of any deal. I hope that France will veto it if Obama uses the UN to bypass Congress.

Dave, that’s because there has never been this level of incompetence at the top.

The Security of the United States and Israel are truly of utmost concern to this President. Said security is the major obstacle to the progress of his great goals for the world and must be dismantled.

Long face....he turned down a windsurfing vacation with Branson so he could go make happy talk with the Mullahs in Iran.

No, Dave, it is not incompetence- it is completely deliberate. If it was stupid incompetence, a significant number of decisions would actually benefit the interests of the US and/or that of our allies, but that has never happened. Every decision has worked to the detriment of the USA and/or our allies. The chance of that result is about as likely due to incompetence as the odds of winning the lottery twice. George Soros may be an evil bastard, but he is not incompetent. And obama IS being directed by somebody.
