My Nuclear Weapons Deal should not include imprisoned Americans in Iran or Iran's terror sponsorship.

Didn’t Josh Earnest say, in effect, that it would be to much to hope for that Iran would give up terrorist activities? That is the way I understood it, at least.

I actually heard the second comment from some DC brainstem.

What a pathetic collection of tools and fools these “business leaders” are. Talk about selling your enemies the rope they will use to hang you with. Sheesh!
