    Isn’t this cute. Obama is sucking up to the Mullahs in Iran with a special ‘Nowruz Message’ translated into Persian. I wonder how much tax payer money was wasted on this latest version of Obama pandering to radical Islamists? The Nowruz message to Iran was released shortly before Obama popped onto Air Force One and headed to the Middle East.

"Undoubtedly, your Novruz message is an insult to the Iranian nation. While threatening the Iranian nation in the message, you have again exposed your ugly pretense from behind the mask of deceit," said President Ahmadinejad, adressing a massive crowd in the western major city of Kermanshah.

She had prepared a beautiful Haft Seen, the Norouz table, and cooked delicious Iranian food. The television was on to follow the announcement of the "tahvil," after which everyone congratulated each...

The weekend statement comes as Washington lobbies for tighter economic sanctions for Iran as punishment for a controversial nuclear program. "Our offer of comprehensive diplomatic contacts and dialogue stands," Obama added. "Indeed, over the course of the last year, it is the Iranian government...
