              QUESTIONS FROM TEXANS ABOUT THE IRANIAN DEAL

  (Mr. POE of Texas asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. POE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I have asked people on my Facebook 
page what they think about the Iranian deal. Here are a few of the 300 
responses.
  Tammy says: Why were our hostages left out of the negotiation? Why 
even trust Iran at all to live up to the deal when they hate America?
  John says: Why are there no American inspectors? Why no instant 
inspections?
  Jacob says: Why are they doing a deal with the world's number one 
state sponsor of terrorism? This used to be called treason.
  Carlos says: Ask them if they remember who Neville Chamberlain was 
and his policy toward Nazi Germany. Giving into Iran has a very similar 
overtone to what Chamberlain and the world did back then.
  Adam says: 24 days' notice, no USA inspectors, no prisoners coming 
home? No inspection of their most lucrative site? China and Russia can 
sell them weapons?
  Mr. Speaker, the American public wants some candid answers. Tomorrow 
Mr. Kerry will testify before our Foreign Affairs Committee. Time for 
some frank, no-double-talk answers from the administration on this 
Iranian deal.
  And that is just the way it is.
