The Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Strategic Forces, Mike Rogers (AL-3) joined Secure Freedom Radio host Frank Gaffney last week to discuss the administration’s recent nuclear deal with Iran and the future strategic implications that will arise from the president’s need for nuclear disarmament.

Rogers emphasized that this deal “does nothing for us” and will most likely fall apart.  However, he is optimistic over the movement towards a bipartisan effort in Congress to stop future unrealistic deals.

“I do think on a bipartisan fashion you’re going to see a sanctions package come in the not-too distant future…  So, even if this deal falls apart in six to eight weeks, which is what I think will happen, I don’t think they’re going to actually let inspectors see anything.  They got the reinforcements they needed financially, and it doesn’t matter then if it falls apart then or not.  But I do think we will come with some statutory sanctions that will tie the president’s hands from making another idiotic deal like this again.”

Later on in the interview, Gaffney and Rogers discuss what seems to be the administration’s interest in taking down what is left of America’s Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Force, despite explicit promises made in the context of the new START treaty.  Rogers cites that, much like Obama’s statements about keeping your health insurance if you like it, this is just another example of him telling people what they wanted to hear “whether he meant it or not.
