5. Pelosi and Susan Rice agree: "A bad deal is worse than no deal"

Tue Mar 3, 2015, 05:09 PM

Mar 2015

From Pelosi's statement:

Today, Prime Minister Netanyahu reiterated something we all agree upon: a nuclear armed Iran is unacceptable to both our countries. We have all said that a bad deal is worse than no deal, and stopping the spread of nuclear weapons is the bedrock of our foreign policy and national security. As President Obama has said consistently, all options are on the table for preventing a nuclear-armed Iran.

National Security Advisor Susan Rice, yesterday:

"I want to be very clear: A bad deal is worse than no deal," Rice said to much applause.
