Karl to Obama: ‘Does It Give You Any Pause to See This Deal Praised by Assad?’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
KARL: "Reporter: Mr. President, does it give you any pause to see this deal praise bid Syrian dictator Assad as a great victory for Iran or praise bid those in Tehran who still shout "Death to America" and yet our closest ally in the Middle East calls it a mistake of historic proportions? And here in Congress it looks like a large majority will vote to reject this deal. I know you can veto that rejection but do you have any concerns about seeing a majority of the people's representatives in Congress saying that this is a bad deal? And if I can just ask you a quick political question -- 
OBAMA: "John, I think -- "
KARL: "Donald --"
OBAMA: "Let me answer the question you asked. It does not give me pause that Mr. Assad or others in Tehran may be trying to spin the deal in a way that they think is favorable to what their constituencies want to hear. That's what politicians do. And that's been the case throughout. You will recall that during the course of these negotiations over the last couple of months every time the supreme leader or somebody tweeted something out for some reason we all bought into the notion, well, the Obama administration must be giving this or capitulating to that. Well, now we have a document so you can see what the deal is, we don't to speculate or engage in spin, you can see what it says and what is required and nobody has disputed that as a consequence of this agreement Iran has to drastically reduce its stockpiles of uranium, is cut off from plutonium, the fordow facility that is underground is converted, that we have an unprecedented inspections regime, that we have snapback provisions if they cheat. The facts are the facts and I'm not concerned about what others say about it."
