Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  (CNN) E kī ana te Whare Pōtae kāore e hiahiatia te whakaaetanga a te kaunihera mō te kirimana karihi a Iran i panuitia i tēnei marama. Engari ahakoa ko nga korero o mua e whakaatu ana kei te whai mana te Perehitini ki te haere whakamua me te kore o te Kaunihera, me ako pea te tari a Obama i tetahi atu akoranga mai i te hitori: Ko te whiwhi i te hainatanga a te Kaunihera he mea tika kia whakapau kaha. He pono, ko te whawhai mo te whakaaetanga a te kaunihera he mea kino ki te taha tōrangapū, a, he nui te kaha e pau ana. Engari he hape tonu te haere whakamua me te kirimana hei kirimana whakahaere-i runga i te whakaaetanga o te peka ture - he pakaru taapori o tenei rahi ka nui ake te pumau me te mana o te Kaunihera.

I runga i te "Meet the Press", ka mea a Kerry, "Ko ta matou e rapu ana, kaua te Kaunihera e whakararu i to maatau kaha, kaore e tika ana, ma te takahi i nga mana o te tari whakahaere o te Perehitini". He tautohe ture nui ka puta i runga i enei take tautuhinga, me te kaha o nga wero a te kooti. Engari i tua atu i te tautohetohe ture, kei reira ano hoki nga take nui o te ao tōrangapū, a he kararehe rerekē katoa aua mea. Hei tīmatanga, kei te piki haere te pēhanga i runga i te Capitol Hill - mai i ngā mema o ngā rōpū e rua - kia whakaaetia he ture e hoatu ai ki te Kaunihera te tika ki te arotake i te kirimana me te whakatau i tētahi whakataunga mō te whakakore i ngā herenga. I te Rāhoroi, i tutuki he whakaaetanga i runga i te ture i whakaarohia e te Tiamana o te Komiti o nga Hononga o te Senate, a Bob Corker, e hiahia ana kia tukuna e te Perehitini Barack Obama te whakaaetanga whakamutunga ki te Kaunihera, me te tuku i nga ra 52 ki te arotake me te whakaae ki te kirimana. I kii a Corker ki MSNBC i te Turei kua...
I tutuki i tēnei marama tētahi whakaaetanga anga ki Iran mō tōna hōtaka karihi. Julian Zelizer: Me rapu te Whare Pōtae i te whakaaetanga a te Kaunihera mō te kirimana whakamutunga. He hītori o te Kaunihera e raru ana i ngā tiriti nui o te ao, e ai ki a ia.
