d0ofball gave Iran all of the leverage almost immediately after taking office. It would be hilarious if it were not so serious. Now Iran is toying with the manchild.

Of course he’s going to say that. He’s taunting Obama, and it is a good strategy. Obama is just naive enough and gullible enough to want to prove him wrong.
