The nation's military forces are overstretched and the U.S. should seek direct talks with Iran instead of making threats, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said.

"The last thing we need is to invade another country," Albright told an audience of 800 people during a speech Tuesday night in Seattle.

Albright also suggested that an official high in the Bush administration should give a speech in response to a letter that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sent Monday to the president.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and other officials have portrayed the 18-page letter, the first from an Iranian head of state to an American president in the 27 years, as a stalling tactic while the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council discuss what to do about Iran's nuclear program.

Albright, who served in the Clinton administration, was in town to promote "The Mighty and the Almighty," her book on the role of religion in international relations.

What a fabulous idea! Quick everyone! What precious U.S. advantage should Madeleine go over with to give away free of charge? (/end biting sarc.)

So Madame Albright thinks the best way to deal with fanatics is to simply talk them to death?

"The last thing we need is to invade another country," Albright told an audience

Agreed. So let's just bomb 'em from a couple thousand feet up like you did in Yugoslavia. Only this time - NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

Talks? Why not tango?

I thought these were the numbnuts who said we shouldn't do anything "unilateral" and should work with the eurotrash.

Hey, I have a good idea for "direct" negotiations. Let's send Jimmuh over there and tell them we'll give them nuclear material, food and money if they promise not to make a bomb!

[plain talk]

"The last thing we need is to invade another country

The last thing we need is another North Korea, Madeleine Allbright.

>>>The nation's military forces are overstretched...<<<

--The USN, USAF, and vast arsenal of ICBM-Cruise missiles that would be utilized to deal with Iran are readily available. Halfbright's brain is operating on NeverReady batteries.

Why this discredited fool gets any print is beyond me.

[snoringbear]

Aw shucks, you all are "so hard" on Aunt Bee...

Actually, I recant the metaphor as it's a huge insult to the real Aunt Bee!

[Plutarch]

Albright really likes sucking up to despots with nuclear ambitions.

[pointsal]

Send Jimmy Carter... he's pretty handy with the negotiations in IRAN...

[frankiep]

Jimmuh Carter, Madeline Notsobright, Bubba Clinton, Algore. What do they all have in common? They speak and act as if they have authority yet none of them are in any official positions. You never see this from conservatives, only leftists. Proof that leftists have a natural sense of entitlement to power is right here.

[Plutarch]

Madeline is a Warrior! I doubt we will ever see features on Rumsfeld or Rice as they push for victory. That is only for Democrats.

[sgtbono2002]

That picture and talking about mad Maddy sucking almost made me sick.

Madam Albrights recipe for success is what got us where we is.
