Better late than never, Senator Warner has arrived at what he claims was the difficult decision to accept the Iran deal rather than the alternative of a heightened push for more hostility or war. Somehow the decision became easier for the senator after the votes had already been found to decide the matter. Now we’re supposed to react as if his successful achievement of irrelevance offends neither constituents who oppose war nor funders who desire it. I’d have more respect for someone who took matters of life and death a bit more seriously. — David Swanson
