Iran's best friend in America.

Whether he knows it or not Barack Obama is Iran's best friend in America. I'm sure right now the mullahs are tuned into CNN with glee as Obama endlessly repeats his willingness to unconditionally have talks with their lovely dictator, the peace-loving Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Obama is willing to run to Tehran but he can't take a little criticism at home. He is unable to defend his position so he makes it all about him. The implication being that he is above criticism.

Even his fellow liberal Michael Goodwin sees through this pathetic charade-

"Bush's attack found the holes in Obama's national security credentials, which escaped scrutiny during his battle with Sen. Hillary Clinton. Beyond plans to withdraw troops from Iraq, neither Obama nor Clinton has articulated a serious plan for protecting America in a dangerous world.

Most revealing, Obama pledged to meet, without preconditions, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea."

Even more telling is this-

"While it's clear Iran is behind much of the mayhem in Iraq, including the killing of American soldiers, Obama has said he wants to see the evidence compiled by the American military for those charges. Does he not believe the charges? Why not?

But instead of contacting the Pentagon for a briefing, he acts as though America is the problem and Iran deserves sympathy. Which was exactly Bush's point when he mocked the notion that talking to Hitler would have stopped World War II."

This is incredible but not surprising. Obama is telling us that he is more than willing willing to talk to the Iranian dictator but not our own military leaders. Obama is revealing his deep contempt for the American military by his actions. This is not the way a potential Commander In Chief behaves in front of the world, and in front of our enemies!
