Respond to of 1577191 Read Obama's Lying Lips ......................................................................................... americanthinker.com By Dan Calic April 12, 2015 Starting back in June 2008, then candidate Obama began touting the importance of preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons when he said, “the danger from Iran is grave, it is real, and my goal will be to eliminate this threat.” On October 7 in ‘08 he said, “we cannot allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon, and I will do everything that’s required to prevent it.” On November 4, 2008 Barack Obama was elected President in what many considered a landslide victory, winning the popular vote by 8 million votes. One of his campaign slogans was “change we can believe in.” Let’s take a look at what he said after being elected. Here are some examples of his statements regarding Iran. On July 1, 2010 he said, “the United States and the international community are determined to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.” In the 2012 State of the Union address he again made his views clear by stating emphatically, “America is determined to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, and I will take no options off the table to achieve that goal.” Then on March 5 2012 when some suggested he was shifting his efforts from prevention to containment he said, “my policy here is not going to be one of containment, my policy is prevention of Iran obtaining nuclear weapons.” He repeated this vow when he spoke to the UN on Sept. 25 2012. On October 22, 2012 during the election campaign while debating Mitt Romney, these were his words- “as long as I’m President of the United States Iran will not get a nuclear weapon.” He was re-elected President on November 6, 2012. His 2013 State of the Union address offered a repeat of his vow against Iran. Altogether there have been at least 28 separate occasions when Barak Obama assured America and the world Iran would not be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons. For a list of his quotations, click here. On April 2 President Obama announced an agreement had been reached with Iran regarding nuclear weapons. Did the agreement reflect his repeated commitments to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons? The simple answer is no. He did not honor the numerous promises he made for the past 7 years. After seven years of telling the entire world what he would prevent, he looked all of us in the eye and all but said, “Read my lips, I lied to you!” Full Story
