The unsigned analysis concluded that Obama is in the same "terrible situation" as President Carter was when Iranians stormed the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days. "The interesting point is that just like Carter, Obama's future is dependent on his approach with Iran, something that did not work well for Carter."

The Iranians are the wiliest, cagiest bunch of miscreants in recent memory, having managed to leverage, exploit their resources far beyond what others would be capable of.

To call out Obama like this by making a comparison of him to Carter is probably the worst, most ignominious insult imaginable. Not to say Jimmy is in any way enamored by having the Iranians invoke his name in this way. Jimmy and the Cockroach-in-Chief are one and the same.

Interesting how the Iranian “language”, or “dialogue” is quite similar to that of the North Koreans, or vice versa.

Obama thinks the Iranians “punch above their weight”.
Obama almost makes one long for a Carter.

It’s sad that I agree with the Iranian regime on this issue.

The best and worst things that could happen between now and November is for Obama to prove he's not Carter.

It would be best since the Iranian people (and the world in general) would be better off without Ahmadinejad and the mullahs.

It would be the worst because......well.....he's still Obama. He'll find a way to eff it up.

>>Jimmy and the Cockroach-in-Chief are one and the same<<

One big difference: jimmah knew he was stupid but didn’t realize he also chose stupid advisers. barry is stupid but thinks he is brilliant. But barry also has selected stupid advisers, so they share that.

barry’s administration will go down as the worst in history — dumber than carter, more corrupt than Grant, more destructive than FDR.

Now I’m confused. If the enemy of an enemy is suppose to be a friend, can anyone trust the Tooth Ferry?

Kik-me-in-da-nads says that Obama better lift sanctions and do as the Republicans say or he’ll end up like Carter?

Did someone slip me acid, him or the media? Was there a translation malfuntion?

The NoKos give the Iranians stiff competition in this category... they don’t HAVE any resources and look what THEY have accomplished.

Of course, it helps when you have an obsequious Useful Idiot of a nation at your beck and call. (That would be US.)

“The only path left for Obama to avoid a big loss to the Republicans in the upcoming election is to compromise with Iran and immediately remove all sanctions....”

HAHAHAHAHA!

Why can’t we be friends? Why can’t we be friends? Why can’t we be friends...

Jimmy Carter indeed.

I thought sending Obama the pink toy replica of that drone a few months ago was cheekier..

Seriously, why shouldn’t they “punch above their weight”?? - Over 30 yrs of huff & puff (aka political rhetoric), negotiations, & useless sanctions would naturally embolden an already frisky lot. Simply put, they do because they Can!

So, as they say.. errr... sing: “little less conversation, little more action... by the West” would see satisfaction in a lotta anti-mullah & anti-regime people, in Iran too.
