Maybe If President Obama Had Sold ILLEGAL Arms To Iran, Republicans Would Call Him A Hero

April 5, 2015
By Allen Clifton

As most people have probably heard by now, the U.S., several of our allies and the Iranian government agreed upon a historic deal pertaining to Iran’s nuclear program. It’s a deal many experts are hailing as groundbreaking and some have even suggested that, if successful, could prevent a third world war down the line.

Now, clearly, any sort of talk like that is extremely premature as it’s very possible this deal could eventually fail. But it’s like I’ve said before, I would rather try to give diplomacy a chance to succeed rather than send thousands of Americans off to die in a war that could have been avoided. Well, about a year and a half ago I wrote an article with a headline very similar to this when all of these talks were still basically in their infancy stage. At the time, I mocked Republicans for being outraged that President Obama might dare try to use diplomacy to deal with Iran (some even suggesting he’s betraying his country) when almost every member of the GOP hails Ronald Reagan as a “conservative legend and American icon” – yet he illegally sold arms to Iran. Sure, Oliver North is the one who ultimately gets tagged with the “blame,” but you have to be an absolute moron to honestly believe that arms were being illegally sold to the Iranian government and the Reagan administration knew nothing about it.

But could you imagine the right-wing freak-out if, instead of simply agreeing to the framework of a deal on Iran’s nuclear program with several of our allies, the Obama administration was caught selling weapons illegally to the Iranian government?

Only apologist's for Republican misdeeds lie.

11. Not too long after that happened they gave Saddam wmd's. Republicans should never

be in a position of political power.

12. They got played.

The trades were criminal; the "deals" were embarrassing. Reagan & Co got taken to the cleaners. Then humiliated, though not impeached.
