And she said this just prior to her disastrous email press conference. Hmmm, I wonder why?

Via Politico:

Before taking questions about her State Department emails in a press conference, Hillary Clinton came to Barack Obama’s defense against Republican critics of talks with Iran.

“Reasonable people can disagree” about Obama’s ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran, the former secretary of state said. “But the recent letter from Republican senators was out of step from the best traditions of American leadership.”

Clinton was referring to a letter authored by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ar.) and signed by 46 other Republican senators warning Iran’s leaders that any agreement they strike with Obama can be undone “with the stroke of a pen.”

“Either these senators were trying to be helpful to the Iranians — or harmful to the commander-in-chief,” she added. “Either answer does discredit to the letter’s signatories.”

Her comments echoed the response of the president himself, who said Monday that “some members of Congress [want] to make common cause with the hard-liners in Iran.”
