What About This US/Iran Nuclear "Framework" Agreement?

Opening Quote"A diplomatic solution that puts significant and verifiable constraints on Iran's nuclear program represents the best and most sustainable chance to ensure that America, Israel, the entire Middle East will never be menaced by a nuclear armed Iran."- Joe Biden

A tentative deal has at least on the surface finally been reached between the U.S. and Iran after what has thus far been an exhaustive process. June 30 is the date agreed upon for this "framework" to transform itself into a final deal. President Obama told America this "understanding" is historic and when all the technical difficulties are worked out Iran will be prevented from making themselves a nuclear bomb. Supposedly Iran's nuclear program will be confined to peaceful purposes only.
Really?

Where the rubber meets the road...

First of all the two sides don't seem to be looking at the same "tentative" agreement. If this is the case how could even a "framework" be any kind of achievement. Iran is claiming once the deal is signed sanctions will immediately be lifted while the White House is saying sanctions will be phased out based on performance.

Iran also is suggesting they will in no way be subjected to "snap" or surprise inspections. Furthermore any conclusions reached by investigators can be disputed. Meanwhile the White House is telling us the investigators will be on Iran and their facilities like "white on rice".
Really?
Were the U.S. and Iran even at the same negotiation?
How big is Switzerland?

It troubles me that what President Obama seems worried about most is that if Congress interferes the U.S. will be blamed for the failure.
Really?
That is what most concerns our President?
I mean when was the last time Iran operated in good faith, and we will be blamed? Come on!

I am troubled with lifting sanctions too quickly. Once Iran solidifies economic deals it will not be that easy to just put sanctions back in place because doing so would also affect the other countries involved. I'm sure the U.S. will be blamed for that as well.

It seems I remember President Obama saying Iran must end it's program but they seem to be a long way off from that. I'm sure Iran really wants lighter sanctions but my guess is they really, really want a nuclear weapon. You combine that with Iran's history of untruthfulness and lack of cooperation, what kind of deal could really be reached. Also as President Obama might say I have a feeling our negotiators are the "JV" team on this one.

In conclusion...
"The world should be very clear about making sure that Iran does not get nuclear weapons, period."- Benjamin Netanyahu
