For weeks now, Rep. Bill Foster, D-Ill., has been studying the Iran nuclear deal. Unlike every other lawmaker, Foster is the only one in Congress who can actually understand the highly technical agreement and check it out for himself.
Unfortunately, there are many technical pathways to a bomb, each of which has to be investigated, said Foster, who is undecided on whether to support the deal.
Foster earned a Ph.D. in physics from Harvard University and spent 22 years as a particle accelerator designer at Fermilab in suburban Batavia before jumping into politics.

I hope Rep. Foster is "voguing"!

Iran really has no path to a nuclear weapon.
And we are always ready for another "just war"!
Or, Iran just keeps doing what they are doing NOW, sitting on enough enriched plutonium too make 4 bombs, continue what they are doing NOW and make more, continue what they are doing NOW and buy more centerfuses.....etc, etc, etc... I cant figure out why 2+2 = 5 with the right wing......do nothing and Iran stays status quo, treaty...10-15 years of nothing.....hmmmmmm?
