Huckabee: Letting Iran Do Their Own Inspection Is Like Letting ‘Clinton Take Care of Her Own Server’

“You know, I think members of Congress ought to ask themselves a simple question, who do I work for? Do I work for President Obama or do I work for the people who elected me? If they work for President Obama, if he’s their boss, then, yes, vote for the deal. But if they’re serious about making sure this deal gets derailed because it’s dangerous, then they better listen to the people who hired them.

“And let me tell you why this is dangerous. This notion that we can go in militarily, well, the way this deal is structured, it’s going to be much more difficult because the Iranians are going to be able to build fortresses underground to make even our most capable weapons unable to do any bunker busting. The Iranians are right now, even before the deal is signed, negotiating with the Russians to get S-300 anti-aircraft weaponry, some of the most sophisticated, sophisticated enough that no American aircraft would be able to get through.

“So this is just -- I mean it’s balloon juice for the president to get out there and pretend that this deal is a good one, in part, Shannon, because this lets Iran do their own inspections, do their self-reporting. It’s like letting a tenth grader grade his own algebra exams or letting Hillary Clinton take care of her own server. Both are nonsense and this deal is nonsense.”
