I hadn’t considered the likelihood that a Republican Congress would or will scuttle any effort to make some kind of agreement with Iran regarding their nuclear program, but that was merely an oversight on my part. If the president is for it, then they are obviously against it. And their understanding of the Middle East is so limited that they can’t fathom how Iran might be of some use to us in the region. Republicans don’t know whether the lunatics in Islamic State are Sunnis or Shiites and they frankly don’t care. They have no idea which sect controls Baghdad or what the hell an Alawite is. Ask them what a Kurd is and they’ll just give you a befuddled look.
I’m not sure how we’re even going to survive what the public has done. Weaponizing this much Stupid is incredibly dangerous.
