Dear Non-Supporters the Iran Nuclear Deal

Unless you actually can define what exactly is 'A Better Deal' then STFU!!!

Going on TV saying that we should hold out for a 'Better Deal' without actually say what that better deal is is basically just wasting good oxygen.

Clearly you do not have a better deal, you just do not want to support Obama and/or you have pledged your allegiance to a country NOT the United States. But what you do not have is any clue what a 'Better Deal' entails. In fact you probably don't even know what the current Iran Nuclear deal entails. For all you know the deal includes giving everyone in congress a free puppy but since you haven't read the deal you don't know if that is true or not.

Thank you!

Because more sanctions (and going it alone, since the other signatories to the agreement will keep their word and end their country's sanctions on Iran) and tough talk haven't ended the Iranian "threat" yet. The only "better deal" I've seen so far involves dropping bombs, firing missiles, and sending in troops, but I haven't heard what the folks backing that hope to achieve, what their goal is, or how they plan to pay for it.

Wouldn't it be nice at one of the events where some elected official is popping off against the agreement if some journalist reared up on his or her hind legs and actually asked one or two pointed questions along these lines?

The better deal is war and profits for the MIC and a reacharound for Netanyahu.
