The following sentence appeared in an early Wednesday Reuters update on the current state of the talks over Iran's nuclear program:

"Negotiators have a tentative agreement on the rough outline of a possible public statement on the progress they have made so far that would also highlight areas of disagreement, diplomats close to the talks said."

Wow. Reminds me of that line in the movie, LA Story, where the guy orders a “half-double decaffeinated half-caff”

Talk about double-speak...

That’s similar to saying Bergdahl served with honor and distinction, that 0bamacare is a smashing success and the economy has never been better, and that Hillary went above and beyond by submitting 5 of her state department emails to the committee. there are an endless number of examples.

"Negotiators have a tentative agreement on
the rough outline of
a possible public statement on
the progress they have made so far
that would also highlight areas of disagreement
diplomats close to the talks said."

Then they broke for lunch.

The Iranians are stalling for time while continuing their full court press to finish their first set of nuclear bombs and get them on line.

They are masters at this sort of thing just as Saddam was in keeping the UN Security Council dilly-dallying for 12 years and defying many UN resolutions before the UN finally authorized Bush II to invade. And yes, it was a text book American victory for our troops, well planned and well executed.

Prince Charming: You! You can’t lie! So tell me puppet... where... is... Shrek?
Pinocchio: Uh. Hmm, well, uh, I don’t know where he’s not
Prince Charming: You’re telling me you don’t know where Shrek is?
Pinocchio: It wouldn’t be inaccurate to assume that I couldn’t exactly not say that it is or isn’t almost partially incorrect.
Prince Charming: So you do know where he is!
Pinocchio: On the contrary. I’m possibly more or less not definitely rejecting the idea that in no way with any amount of uncertainty that I undeniably do or do not know where he shouldn’t probably be, if that indeed wasn’t where he isn’t. Even if he wasn’t at where I knew he was, that’d mean I’d really have to know where he wasn’t.

Meanwhile they’ve been living and traveling high on the hog on the backs of their country’s taxpayers. Any idiot can see they’ve been doing nothing except spinning their wheels. Iran wants it to drag on and apparently they are going to get what they want. I was counting on the other countries to show more sense than Kerry but I guess not.

According to Pelosy “We have to sign the treaty before we know what’s in it.”
