When Irans Ayatollah Khamenei disagreed with the U.S. interpretation of the recently negotiated nuclear framework last week, the White House was quick to dismiss the posturing. Congressional Republicans werent so sure.
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), in particular, seemed to endorse the Ayatollahs credibility over the U.S. Secretary of States. I think youre going to find out that they had never agreed to the things that John Kerry claimed that they had, McCain said Friday....
Asked if he considered the Iran supreme leaders version of the truth more believable than the American version, McCain added, I dont know
I dont know whos more believable.
Just so were clear, the Republican senator could trust American officials including John Kerry, his friend and former colleague or the ayatollah. McCain freely admits he feels torn on the matter.
