Kerry: We Can't Reveal Contents of Secret Side Deals to American People
We could tell you, but we'd have to kill you?
We have to pass the treaty, er, agreement so that we can see what's in it?
This group of rank amateurs couldn't negotiate their way out of a paper bag. They think they're the smartest folks in the room, but they're playing checkers while our opponents are playing chess.

Saudia Arabia and surrounding states fair game for Iranian expansionism. Oh yes, one more item: first strike on the Jewish State without reprisal.
Ithnk that should the side deals that were probably agreed to.
One thing that was mentioned by a legal scholar the other day is that there is a 35-day clause that provides that either side can claim the other is in breach and break things off. I think what you'll actually see is that once Iran gets its hands on the better part of that $150 billion in frozen assets, they'll break things off.
What is a sheer farce are any of the claims that this prevents the Iranians from enriching uranium or plutonium. There is nothing in there that specifically forces them to stop and nothing which penalizes them even if they are found doing it! This agreement is a total joke.
The other part that is particularly egregious are the hidden provisions of which their presence was leaked by an insider and the Administration is refusing to release to even Congress, let alone the public. That there were even hidden dealings going on should be an impeachable offense and this is only confirmed by attempting to keep these from the public with so much on the line. Nothing justifies hidden provisions in a treaty.
They have never shown us the least bit of consideration so there is nooooo waaaaay Josa, we're gona trust them now!
As for negotiating I look at it this way. Why would you vote for anyone or their party who had publicly proven they are incompetent for the job at hand? None of that was secret. They couldn't defend the Constitution and sold it out to be blunt. Not at all what their oath of office states.
Their is a fine balance between winning and losing especially when the opponent is using terrorist tactics. One has to do very little but prove they can do an 'action' of the proper kind and provoke an inappropriate response.
The easiest response to provoke once taken is how long it takes the target nation government to abandon it's principles. The Patriot Act is one rather large and very expensive surrender document for many reasons but the primary reason is abandoning civil rights. Civil Rights is often the real target of the terrorist attacks as suspending them proves the government was after all in the wrong and the terrorist revolutionaries are in the right.
I can't think of anywhere that strategy was more successful than in he United States since 9/11 and still on going.
Since then it doesn't take much to provoke responses and then having taken that step guide that step guide a retreat and then another response even more inappropriate.
Especially when the leadership not only starts out showing how weak and incompetent they are but proceeds to publicly prove it
Which brings us to the real crux of the matter.
When you know the leadership is weak and incompetent. When you know by the evidence of their actions they are incapable and unwilling to protect the country and it's values. When you have seen them do away with such bedrocks as the Bill of Rights.
Why are you surprise at secret side deals - if indeed there are any deals at all
Who has profited the most? Better yet who has lost the most?
The worst part is Kerry is the runner up to Hillary and if not her replacement for the top spot a shoo in for the second seat.
No matter if they were working together the whole time or if one side took advantage of a crisis to conduct their own form of revolution.
Seig Me No Heils Comrade Kerry. I don't serve the party I serve the Constitution.
It's all in how you view what it really is they were negotiating for.
I honestly do not see how this country can survive until the next President.
Instead, Kerry, like Pelosi, will continue to sound like an idiot, people will scold/ridicule...and then...nothing. The majority of people in government are working toward the same goal so dog and pony shows prevail.
