Obama essentially admits that he was lying when he promised he would not allow Iran to become a nuclear power and that all options were on the table to prevent such a thing - and in doing so also admits what any objective observer already fully knows, that he is not fit to be president of the United States:
The truly absurd thing about this statement is that it totally undermines the deal he is trying to defend - what now is the motivation for Iran to adhere to the agreement if it is indeed their goal to become a nuclear power? I mean, clear thinking people already understood this - but Obama has now announced it for all to hear and done so in defence of the thing he has rendered null and void by defending it. Absurd.
"We cannot commit ourselves to an endless cycle of violence, and tough talk and bluster may be the easy thing to do politically, but it's not the right thing for our security," Obama said in San Francisco. "We cannot rule out peaceful solutions to the world's problems".No one has ever said, no sane person anyway, that we long for war - but there was never any hope of stopping Iran's nuclear intentions, or any other nation who now takes up that mantle, without the credible threat of violence - that's what it means to be America - and you are not fit to lead America if you are ideologically or as a matter of personality predisposed to deny or dread or live in fear of that bitter reality - at the very least you should give the voters a choice on whether or not they wish to have such a person leading them and not wholly dissemble through two elections about who you are and what you intend.
