I have seen every rightwing nutjob pol throw fits saying Obama is a pathetic weak kneed 'Chamberlain'
I would have a few direct questions for them...
So, you are saying the rightwing conservative leader of Great Britain is a pathetic weak kneed 'Chamberlain' ?
And you are saying the right wing conservative prime minister of Germany is a pathetic weak kneed 'Chamberlain' ?
And you are also saying Russia's Vladimir Putin is a pathetic weak kneed 'Chamberlain' ?
This is not a one on one treaty by the US and Iran
All those countries spent well over a year negotiating and signed off on the deal
How come the Dems and tv pundits never point that out?

Just FYI.

(23,946 posts)3. Makes no difference to the point of the OP...all the intimately involved major world leaders support Obama and the deal.

(58,724 posts)4. Agreed
It's just a little tidbit that people often seem to be unaware of.

(8,969 posts)5. I didnt know he was a rightwinger..
The other poster may be correct its not directly relevant to my OP, but I'm glad you pointed it out.
That little factoid could come in very handy in any of a number of conversations in the future, thanks!!

They HATE it when you throw the logical conclusion of what they're advocating in their face.
