The White House pool reporter says an unnamed official claims President Obama offered to have an "encounter" with his Iranian counterpart, but was turned down:
Senior administration officials came to pool hold around 2:45pm to say that the White House had offered to have "an encounter" on the sidelines of UNGA with Iranian President Rouhani, but the Iranians informed the US today that it is "too complicated for Iranians to do at this point."

The brave and ever omnipotent Obama offered an olive branch to Rouhani and was severely insulted by this rejection.
So the Naked Emperor got slapped with the imaginary sword...hmmm.
They must be ready to send the nukes to Tel Aviv...and Gnu Yak.
That was Valerie and Obama’s plan all along.
Oh look, distraction, Hey look over here, the republicans are looking to shut the government down. They are the ones you should be angry with.
I had the same question - here's how the MSM is spinning the story to ensure that there is no embarrassing fallout for Obama:
"(AP) — Senior U.S. officials say President Barack Obama and Iranian President Hasan Rouhani will not meet while both leaders are at the United Nations. The officials say a meeting proved to be too complicated for the Iranians. But they say work is under way at the staff level to resolve an impasse over Iran's nuclear program."
There you have it - not a hint that the Iranians rebuffed Obama. Once again, the MSM is covering for Obama...
Sure. Obama is a foreign policy rookie.
Tee hee.
THAT was MY first reaction too! Can you believe this? !!
LOL!! BWAHAHAHA! IS RIGHT. I’m Stillll laughing!
For some reason I find that amusing. I have never rooted for someones failure more then obungo. That is probably b/c i feel as if he is trying to enslave us as payback for nonexistent percieved wrongs. He is such a tool!
Saw earlier on Fox News Channel a report that said Øbama declined the meeting. Is FNC in the tank for him too???
Also, did anyone see the front page of USA Today today? Does he not look photoshopped in that pic with some world leaders? Even when it is real he looks fake.
The US certainly has now topped Carter with the new internationally renown foreign diplomacy buffoon as our prez. LOL!
We are so screwed. Please, pardon my tasteless term, but we are what-I-said.
LMAO, b!tch slapped again...............
That has been my tagline for at least 6 years!
bwahahahaahahaha
Evidently nobody told Baraq that Ayatollah Khomeini is dead.
Obama got punked by a punk. Wow, I bet he feels stupid.
The problem see is that he dragged the U.S. of A. down with him in the eyes of the world.
Well done.
(Thanks!!)
Given the US’ reputation for collecting the DNA of diplomats its officials meet with, and Obama’s reputation for being a colossal turd in all respects, what’s in it for them?
Barry gets no respect...first he’s mocked by Putin, then scolded by Rousseff and then turned down by Rouhani.
