Fox News host blasts GOP for 'becoming pen pals with the leadership of Iran'
Fox News host Greta Van Susteren on Sunday assailed Senate Republicans who signed an open letter to Iran warning that a nuclear agreement with the Obama administration could easily come undone.
"It end runs the president of the United States, which I think is terrible," she said on ABC's This Week. "They could achieve the same goal without sending a letter becoming pen pals with the leadership of Iran."
Also Sunday, Secretary of State John Kerry criticized the letter's lead author, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), for taking an "unconstitutional, un-thought-out action." —Jon Terbush
