In the aftermath of President Obama State of the Union address:
President Barack Obama was less than forthcoming with the nation Tuesday when he said that “for the first time in a decade, we’ve halted the progress of [Iran's] nuclear program and reduced its stockpile of nuclear material.”
These claims are not supported by any of the facts on the ground in Iran.
Iran, in fact, has bolstered the most controversial aspects of its nuclear infrastructure, while at the same time dragging out negotiations with Western nations.
Meanwhile, key economic sanctions on Tehran have been rolled back, allowing the Islamic Republic’s economy to rebound.
Contrary to Obama’s claim that the program is “halted,” Iran has actually made significant progress in all areas of its nuclear weapons infrastructure.
This includes building new nuclear reactors, which give Tehran an alternate plutonium path to a nuke, enriching uranium, and continuing critical work on ballistic missiles.
The below chart, provided by The Israel Project, outlines precisely how Iran has continued to make great progress on the nuclear front.

Democrat Senator: "Obama's talking points seem to come from Iran"
“The more I hear from the administration and its quotes, the more it sounds like talking points that come straight out of Tehran,” Democrat Senator Robert Menendez said. “And it feeds to the Iranian narrative of victimization, when they are the ones with original sin. An illicit nuclear weapons program going back over the course of 20 years, they’re unwilling to come clean on,” he continued. “So I don’t know why we feel compelled to make their case, when in fact … they get to cheat in a series of ways and we get to worry about their perceptions.”

Read Daniel Greenfield's analysis of the State of the Union Address
Turning the page means not having to read any bad news.
Having dragged the United States into two new wars, one in Libya and one in Syria, Obama sneeringly denounces Republicans and more serious Democrats who want to drag the country “into costly conflicts that strain our military and set back our standing.” By that he means imposing new sanctions on Iran’s nuclear program, instead of letting a terrorist state have a nuclear bomb.
In fact it’s Obama, not Republicans, who brought the United States into a proxy war with Iran in Syria while at the same time allowing it to go nuclear in the single greatest act of strategic insanity in history.
