Obama is reckless. He has no moral compass. No evil act is too great to stand in the way of his ideological ambitions.
I like my buddy Zip’s response: “Excuse me Mr. Ahmadinejad, I need to step over this puddle of blood to shake your hand…..”
WASHINGTON – The Obama administration will leave open the door for discussions with Iran over its nuclear ambitions even as demonstrators question the legitimacy of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s re-election, administration officials said Sunday.
Ahmadinejad has accused the West of stoking unrest, singling out Britain and the United States for alleged meddling. Last week, Iran expelled two British diplomats, and Britain responded in kind. Iran, which detained nine British Embassy employees Saturday before releasing four, has said it’s considering downgrading diplomatic ties with Britain.
…..Both Rice and David Axelrod, Obama’s top adviser, said Ahmadinejad doesn’t appear to have the final say over Iran’s foreign policy. Axelrod, dismissing Ahmadinejad’s harsh language against the U.S. and Obama as “bloviations,” said being open to talks with Iran is not an effort to reward the country. “We are looking to … sit down and talk to the Iranians and offer them two paths. And one brings them back into the community of nations, and the other has some very stark consequences,” Axelrod said.
Iran has been murdering people in the streets of Tehran and Obama while Obama’s response is “I don’t want to meddle”. But Israel? He’s glad to meddle with them anytime.
Here’s David Axelrod today on Meet the Press. The short version is this: no condemnation, no consequences for the Iranian regime what happens in Iran is up to the Iranian people…shameful..
“Let’s be clear that we didn’t meddle in the election in Iran,” Axelrod said. “The dispute in Iran is between the leadership in Iran and their own people, and plainly, Mr. Ahmadinejad thinks that by fingering the United States, that he can create a political diversion. So I’m not going to entertain his bloviations that are politically motivated.”
He said Ahmadinejad’s accusations are meant for domestic consumption and to quell unrest after his re-election that his opponents call a fraud.
Axelrod stressed that the Obama administration’s willingness to hold diplomatic talks with the Iranian leadership was not to be regarded as a reward.
“We are not looking to reward Iran. We are looking to … sit down and talk to the Iranians and offer them two paths. And one brings them back into the community of nations, and the other has some very stark consequences,” Axelrod said.
