Tehran — Iran has agreed to abandon its nuclear-weapons program in a historic diplomatic achievement certain to dominate tonight’s foreign-policy presidential debate, and dramatically reshape the electoral landscape.

“This is an extraordinary breakthrough,” said Deputy Undersecretary of State Jonathan Ebert Jr., lead negotiator for the U.S. “It’s a tribute to the hard work of our diplomatic team and President Obama’s visionary leadership.”

According to Ebert, the momentous deal was struck late Sunday night after President Obama called Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and personally apologized for a Madonna video the Iranian leader found offensive. “Ahmadinejad had originally insisted we apologize for Beyonce’s ‘Single Ladies’ video, but President Obama held firm, eventually offering to apologize for ‘Justify My Love’ instead. The production values in that video — lighting, set design — were simply appalling,” Ebert said. “Not only was it the right call by the president, it was a courageous one.”

Washington was abuzz this morning with rumors of other arms deals, including the possibility that North Korea would dismantle its nuclear program in return for an apology for Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” a video that has long irritated Kim Jong Eun. However, reports that Russia would reduce its stockpile of tactical nukes in return for an apology for Red Dawn were denied by Ebert. “Putin’s still holding out for a curtsy from President Obama. We’re only offering a bow, max. Besides, the president’s campaign schedule won’t permit it.”

you know things are bad when satire is closer to the truth than “the truth” from thr OMG and the FFFG.

I READ them. I said that! I understood what it was. Can’t you read?

[Bigg Red]

Satire!

Had me going for a minute, though, I admit.

[bgill]

Lying to the infidels again.

[Mr. K]

I Believe them!

I also believe in unicorns, the tooth fairy, santa clause, and obamacare lowering costs.

For this to be an Amazing Resolution, one would have first had to acknowledge that Iran was a Massive Problem.

And one would have to believe that Iran was going to live up to its end of the agreement.

[Revolting cat!]

Too early, Earl! It’ll happen on Monday, Monday before the election Mama and Papa!

I can recognize BS when I hear it. Iran will give up it's ambition to have a NUCLEAR DEVICE when the Pacific Ocean runs dry. I suspect that this is a ploy to support Obama in his quest for a second term. Obama they can control, Mitt is another thing.

It is somewhat troubling that NRO would float this humorless scam at this time in the election cycle. It’s almost like they’re setting the stage ofr a gotcha, but of which candidate?
