For most of us the answer is obviously simple....it is a no!!
Further would you buy that home if it was determined the contract is acceptable however you will not know the terms, costs, payments, etc....they will be addressed in a separate agreement. And you will not know the finacial terms and are not allowed to contact the financial institutions involved.
Again for most of us the answer is a resounding NO!
Please note there is no need for poltical affiliation to buy a home or decide whether the terms of the agreement are acceptable or not.
NO DIFFERENCE regarding the Iran agreement.
How can any responsible person take a position of agreement or support for the agreement without knowing the terms of the agreement.
Just go along because of what Obama or Kerry advises one to do? Would you go along with the purchase of the house if the real estate agent advised you to go ahead and sign everything will be OK?
And all the while those who have to approve or agree with something they do not have all the information on have Obama add insult to injury, the nerve and the balls to state ANYBODY that does not go along with the agreement they are like the Islamic radical terrorists.
I for one am sick and tired of Obama, Kerry, the media and the lemmings (who also do not know the facts) blasting those of us who, on principal, will not accept on blind faith what is claimed to be in the agreement........no more than I would when buying a house.
There is no room for partisan leveraging of an unreasonable position.

Your post is a good analogy and one with which I totally agree, but here's the sad part -
To answer your 2 questions highlighted above, although I would agree with your resounding no, there are so many people out there, whether for the reason of blind trust, ignorance, or sheer laziness, that would actually say yes to that. It's almost like a subconscious thing where they just trust the authority figure, or feel they are not intelligent enough to ask questions, or just do things out of laziness, or don't make important matters a priority due to time constraints and would rather complain after the fact. That is the constituency that many of our corrupt leaders feed off of, and unfortunately there seem to be more and more people like that all the time. The dumbing down of America, people working 2 to 3 jobs to make ends meet because of the changes in our economy, etc, all play a part in the game taking place in our country. I'm not sure what it is going to take to wake up the majority in this country!
