BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT
Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, the nuclear deal President Obama has reached with Iran is dangerous and delusional. He says it will stop Iran from getting the bomb. Well, I would like him to tell us how it would do so when it puts us at the mercy of Iran.
This deal does not provide for anytime, anywhere inspections. We would have to ask Iran permission, which they could deny.
The idea that Iran will not go nuclear with this deal defies history. Worse yet, it will undoubtedly start a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. I say that as a veteran of two wars.
This deal reflects Obama's disastrously naive foreign policy of appeasing our adversaries and stiffing our friends.
We have a duty to protect American citizens from harm, and that is why I will be voting against this deal.
