Far left progressive liberal Democrat Senator Robert Menedez who recently won re-election for another six year term is accusing the Obama regime of ‘fear-mongering’ rhetoric telling Congress not to pass more sanctions on Iran.
The Democratic chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee accused the Obama administration Wednesday of using “fear-mongering” rhetoric in urging Congress to delay new sanctions against Iran as world powers try to secure nuclear concessions from Tehran.
Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey said he would continue to push for fresh sanctions in the wake of a nuclear deal brokered in Geneva, in which Iran agrees to a six-month pause in its nuclear program in exchange for eased sanctions worth $7 billion.
Menendez, speaking on the National Public Radio program “All Things Considered,” cited White House Press Secretary Jay Carney’s remarks at a recent press briefing about Americans not wanting a “march to war” with Iran as over-the-top rhetoric.
