Presidents Abedinejad & Obama Will Just Have A Nice Chat

As usual The Washington Post poses Iran's plans for nuclear weapons as a domestic concern that can be rationally chatted about by the big O and Chairman Short.

Obama says Iran's energy concerns legitimate
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.

Obama then went on to caution us that our values are different from Iran's values. Who knew?

Obama added that there is a danger "when the United States, or any country, thinks that we can simply impose these values on another country with a different history and a different culture."

Different? I'd say so. We don't reward murders wielding long knives for the decapitation of infidels and rapists plying their trade with family, friends and neighbors with a promise of 72 virgins for eternity. Mix in nuclear weapons and their intended use by Iran and those differences become more clear. To us. Not so much with the Obama Administration.
