“I thank the gentleman. Mr. Speaker, when I was home during the August break, I talked to a lot of folks. Many of them were fearful. They were fearful about national security. And it focused on the on deal, the Iranian deal that we are here for today. The Iranian deal, Mr. Speaker, is bad for America. It is bad for Israel. It is bad for the Middle East. But, oh, what a deal for Iran. If we approve this deal, there will be singing and dancing in the streets in Iran, especially with the High Ayatollah leading the dancing. Why? Because it is wonderful for Iran. The deal certifies a nuclear Iran, eventually. We can argue over when, but they are going to get nuclear weapons. How lovely is that. Is the world going to be safer because of that? No. We need to see the world for what it is. Iran is a wolf in wolf's clothing. They make absolutely no secret about they want us dead. They want Israel dead first. They were preaching this while we are working on this peace, peace, peace at any price deal, talking about how they want to destroy us. So why don't we just look at the law right now. We have heard a little bit about a side deal. Secretary Kerry was before our Foreign Affairs Committee. I asked him about a side deal that came up about the IAEA deal with Iran. He said he hadn't read it, he has been briefed on it. Congress needs to read the side deals before we ever vote to approve this deal. We have to read the fine print, like all of us are supposed to do when we sign a contract.…”
