The Iran Deal: President Obama has the 34 Democrat votes in the Senate to make his nuclear appeasement pact with terrorist Tehran a reality. Republicans share in the blame, but they still have work to do.
Retiring Sen. Barbara Mikulski of Maryland became the 34th Senate Democrat to announce support for the administration's nuclear weapons agreement with the world's foremost terrorist client state, ensuring an Obama veto would be sustained.

| LINK: BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS |
Mikulski and her 33 comrades have blood on their hands — and not only the blood of victims of future Islamist nuclear terrorism after Tehran exploits the deal's many holes, gets the bomb and either uses it itself or gives weapons to terrorist groups. It's also blood from the conventional terrorism Iran will expand with tens of billions of dollars of sanctions relief.
Speaking Wednesday at, of all places, the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Secretary of State John Kerry made the case for surrendering to a regime that would burn our Constitution the way Iranian incendiary devices have burned and blasted our troops.
"History may judge it a turning point, a moment when the builders of stability seize the initiative from the destroyers of hope," Kerry declared. Who are these "builders of stability"? Kerry and Europe's negotiators, who were willing to bargain away anything for the sake of a piece of paper?
We learned this week in an IBD column by ex-CIA nuclear proliferation analyst Fred Fleitz of the Center for Security Policy that evidence suggests the secret side deals between the U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency and Tehran were actually the work of the Obama administration. Fleitz suspects "a U.S. initiative to quietly drop" the key issue of the possible military dimensions of the Iranian nuclear program "by separating it from the nuclear agreement and placing it into a secret IAEA-Iran agreement that the American people and the U.S. Congress cannot see."Read the rest of this IBD editorial HERE.

Conservatives should have thought of this when they were dragging us into war with Iraq. Iran always was the threat.
