Everything you need to know about the Iran nuke deal
By Jesse Byrnes

The United States and other world powers reached an outline for a nuclear deal with Iran on Thursday that would lift international sanctions on the country in exchange for new limitations on its nuclear program.

... want released, how long do you think it would take the Republicans to share that information with the hardliners in Iran hoping to scuttle the agreement?

On the flip side, they've already told us Iran has agreed to destroy most of their nuclear program and allow the most aggressive inspections by any country in history BEFORE we lift economic sanctions. I can't think of how it could possibly be worse from an Iranian perspective. They seem to have already assured the Iranian hardliners that Iran essentially surrendered in totality.

Short of surrendering their oil fields to American oil companies, I can't think of anything else Iran could do.

And that is, of course, why Republicans are unhappy. Republicans would probably have probably helped them build the fucking bomb had Iran offered to privatize their oil fields.
