RNC delegates blast Obama administration for lack of action on Iran nukes

President Obama has empowered Iran’s nuclear ambitions through fruitless negotiations that could ultimately jeopardize the safety of Israel, Republican National Convention (RNC) delegates say.
Iran’s genocidal rhetoric has not stopped the president from extending the olive branch in hopes that the rogue country will shut down its clandestine uranium enrichment program.
Obama “hasn’t done enough” to stymie Iran’s efforts, said John Macy, a Wisconsin delegate to the 2012 RNC in Tampa. “I’m concerned that under his presidency they’ll get the bomb and he’ll have to live with that for the rest of his life.”
“I don’t know what he’s done,” said Macy, explaining that his worry centers on the president’s hesitance to discuss Iran publicly.
“I don’t think he’s covered it much,” said Jonathan Mitchell, an alternative delegate from Massachusetts. “He hasn’t focused on it.”
“It’s something he has not really spoken about,” said Colorado delegate Jon Warnick.
Doyle Webb of Arkansas slowly shook his head as he gave “the president a very low rating on his handling of Iran.” Economic sanctions on Iran “have not worked” despite the administration’s ongoing insistence otherwise, noted Webb, chairman of the Arkansas Republican Party.
“Israel must feel like it’s on an island with how little support it’s getting from the president,” said Brian O’Connor, a delegate from the Commonwealth of Virginia. Obama is “fiddling while they keep building.”
