...Remedial steps are envisioned in the Safeguards Agreement to address them, and Iran has done so. Moreover, it was no secret that we were in the European, Russian and Asian markets to purchase enrichment technology in the late '80s and '90s. Therefore, an Iranian secret weapon program is only hype, and the sense of urgency about Iran's nuclear program is rather tendentious.

...good as Fitzpatrick coming out of college, and he plays a position with more elite players than the quarterback spot. My top Ivy League football source predicts that his name won’t be called at all this weekend, yet that hasn’t stopped the hype machine from churning out useless info about him.

I find it only fitting that some of the prominent U.S. competitors underperformed. I would have preferred a little less cheering for your home team...
