LONDON -- President Barack Obama suggested that Iran may have some right to nuclear energy _ provided it proves by the end of the year that its aspirations are peaceful.

SNIP SNIP

"What I do believe is that Iran has legitimate energy concerns, legitimate aspirations," Obama said, adding that the international community also "has a very real interest" in preventing a nuclear arms race.

Where is the problem if power is abundant, cheap AND clean?

The problem lies in the fact that such a scenario would put more money in the pockets of Americans while reducing business costs, thus encouraging economic growth and weakening the government's ability to nationalize the private sector.

Get real Obama. You are the biggest fool of all trying to convince us that a mad man wants peace.

To paraphrase Michelle Obama, for the first time in my life I’m ashamed to be an American.

Someone...all along...wanted both Iran & NK to have nukes.

It’s more apparent now than ever.

At which time they'll thank zer0 for giving them enough time to finish their nuclear warheads and targeting Israel.

Boy, Bibi is going to love this... /s

Since the Holy One shut down funding for our main national atomic waste repository, I have to ask...when does America get the same rights to atomic power?

Wasn’t this the Bush administration’s policy, namely, that Iran can have nuclear power reactors as long as we’re sure they aren’t developing nuclear weapons?

It is just as John Bolton warned; the people now in office believe in talking. If the talking fails to work, they believe in more talking. If those talks fail, they believe in more talking...

Liberals are congenitally incapable of comprehending the fact that there are some people on this Earth who are unreasonable and with whom you cannot negotiate and reasonably expect to achieve anything but your own defeat. Barack Obama is the leader of this chronically naive cadre.

He is incapable of comprehending the truth about people like Kim and Ahmadinejad. To call him "stupid" is to misjudge him and compliment him, he is a fool and no amount of information or education can rescue him from his foolishness. He will never understand the concept.

Yes, but W tried to actually enforce it by having Iran stop processing their own stuff and have them buy it from other countries.

Ain't no way 0bama's gonna do that.

We need to build reactors here in America, and there is no GOOD reason not to do so.

I imagine it's for the same nefarious "reasons" we haven't built a new oil refinery since 1975. The same "reasons" the left refuses to drill ANWR. As long as there is an energy crisis in the country the left can exert control and advance it's NWO agenda. Don't sweat this, the end game is almost done.

Crank in the “M5” factor. The Ultimate Computer on Star Trek realized that it had done wrong and was in error. Its last words were “This unit must die”, and then it turned off all the ship’s power and defenses.

We’re seeing that happen to our country now.

Yep... and all of our old adversaries are laughing at the "Boy Wonder".
