Ben Rhodes can't answer questions about Obama secretly granting Iran access to US financial system
[Washington Examiner - HT Weasel Zippers]
Ben Rhodes, a former top aide to President Barack Obama, repeatedly dodged questions from CNN's Wolf Blitzer !! Friday about a new report claiming his administration misled Congress about granting Iran access to the U.S. financial system during the negotiation of the Iranian nuclear deal.

On Wednesday, Senate Republicans released a report claiming that the Obama administration secretly granted Iran a license "that authorized a conversion of Iranian assets worth billions of U.S. dollars using the U.S. financial system," despite administration officials testifying before Congress that granting Iran access to the U.S. financial system was never on the table as a negotiating tool.

The former deputy national security adviser for strategic communications tried to shoot down the idea the administration misled Congress by telling Blitzer that it was only a "single license granted" that was "never even used."

Rhodes added that it doesn't really matter how the administration operated, as Republicans "got what they wanted. They tore up the Iran deal."

"Instead of actually putting forward a policy for nuclear weapons going forward, they are investigating things in a partisan way that happened years ago," he stated. "And frankly what is more concerning to me is the fact that a few days ago the supreme leader of Iran said they're going to resume the nuclear enrichment activities. That is what we should be worried about here."

#1  Rhodes added that it doesn't really matter how the administration operated, as Republicans "got what they wanted. They tore up the Iran deal."

So, at this point what difference does it make? Ask the victims of Iranian sponsored terrorism in the Middle East.

#2  Yeah, and they were gonna resume nuke activities anyway. There was nothing in the agreement to stop them.

#3  Damn, so they did do it. Crookeder and crookeder. DAMN we dodged a bullet. If only we had an Attorney General who wasn't compromised. We could really drain the swamp.

#4  It happened years ago. Tell that to Judge Moore.

#5  Did Wolf Blitzer ask those "tough" questions only because he is...?
