TYT: Republicans Find Obama As Reason For GOP Letter To Iran



"Cenk Uygur (http://www.twitter.com/cenkuygur) host of The Young Turks discusses the response of Republicans to a strongly worded letter several Republican Senators sent to Iran.

Following a letter sent to Iran written by Senator Tom Cotton and signed by forty six other republican senators, more GOP lawmakers are beginning to point the blame at U.S. President Barack Obama. They claim that while the letter can widely be regarded as a bad move, if Obama hadn't reacted the way he had to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to congress, or if he had been handling the nuclear talks in a different manner then these senators wouldn't have felt the need to send the letter in the first place."

It is very unfortunate that Obama forced the 47 Senators and some Republican presidential candidates to write and sign this letter. Especially when the letter states Obama is powerless compared to these 47 long term, possibly life-time, Senators.

As always, we find the Party that includes the Senator with a snow ball, lacks reason, logic, and common sense.
