Iran: Deal or No Deal

Iran is "playing" Team Obama. These "deadlines" are a joke. I think we are now up to a dozen extensions.

VERY IMPORTANT: "If the accord isn't sent to Congress by Thursday, its month long review period would be doubled to 60 days, meaning the Obama administration couldn't lift any economic sanctions on Iran during that time." Keep in mind that there are a lot of top Democrats that don't like the deal being discussed. The chances of a Republican controlled Congress approving a deal made by Kerry without major changes are "slim and none". If changes are made, the negotiations go back to square one.
In my opinion, the way to get Iran to stop moving toward a nuclear weapon is to double the sanctions, not lift them. We are thinking like children if we believe the global sponsor of terrorism is going to comply with a deal anyway.
