IRAN MOCKS US AFTER OBAMA LETTER
BREITBART ^ | 31 JAN 2009

Posted on 01/31/2009 8:22:10 AM PST by lt.america

US President Barack Obama's offer to talk to Iran shows that America's policy of "domination" has failed, the government spokesman said on Saturday. "This request means Western ideology has become passive, that capitalist thought and the system of domination have failed," Gholam Hossein Elham was quoted as saying by the Mehr news agency.

"Negotiation is secondary, the main issue is that there is no way but for (the United States) to change," he added.

After nearly three decades of severed ties, Obama said shortly after taking office this month that he is willing to extend a diplomatic hand to Tehran if the Islamic republic is ready to "unclench its fist".

I think the term McCain used in the debates regarding Pres. Obama’s foreign policy views, was naivety (with a special pronounciation on the “ty” for affect).

President Obama is finding out the hard way that no matter how orgasmic the “world” was during his election and inauguration that on the whole they view the USA as a monolithic entity. President Bush didn't like playing the role of ugly American on the world stage. President Bush understood the hard cold facts of foreign policy and what I described above.

Just great! Now the entire world knows what a bumbling fool 54% of our country voted into office.

Guess Biden was correct on them “testing” barry. I just wonder when it will happen.

"This request means Western ideology has become passive, that capitalist thought and the system of domination have failed,"

Very shrewd of him to point announce the failure of capitalism given the global financial crisis. The second and third world countries have learned to pluck anti-capitalist strings in order to divide the West along ideological lines.

Don’t worry, the powers that be only say around 1 or 2% of the Fundamental Muslim population are violent. The rest just approve and let them get away with it (Including the non-Fundamentals, of course if it suits their interest will go along with Western “thought” and help).

Wow. Mr. “I know what’s best and you all are idiots” is learning that HIS way isn’t the right way. Too bad he couldn’t read a history book about Jimmy Carter. Ok, not a history book because it’s probably not right. But at least read some newspaper articles. Jeez.

As predicted with certainty, Obama's conciliatory gesture was taken as weakness. He made the US look like the supplicant coming with hat in hand to beseech an audience. Guess who Obama just put in the driver's seat...

This sh*t isn't that hard, Bammy. Grow up, ya chicken breasted patsy.

Even though you are more than capable of destroying an enemy many times over, letting them think you are on your knees is incredibly stupid if you aren't baiting them intentionally.

Become President first, let the USA taxpayer pay for your mistakes later.

Well we know that Nancy Pelosi didn’t mind covering up to be able to schmooze with the Syrian President, so maybe she won’t mind having to cover her entire face in Congress. Come to think of it - even a paper bag would be better than that frozen deer in the headlights botox look.
So I guess not all things muslim are a minus.

The one - hasn’t decided if he is Christian, muslim or atheist he is so conflicted - toss a coin hey Muslim would at least keep his wife out of the spotlight.

So maybe Iran wanting us to change and become a muslim nation might not be so distasteful to this administration and the current leaders in Congress.
But hey - I could be wrong they might be looking at scientology as an alternative.

One thing we do know, is that Congress and the White house want power over every facet of our lives including our religion.
