As they do every time the issue of US-Iranian relations comes up, the White House has insisted that their policy is unchanged. The statement was dubious today, however.
That’s because a report out of the Wall Street Journal today said that President Obama had last month secreted a letter to Iranian Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The White House declined to discuss what their termed “private correspondence,” but the report is that the letter primarily focused on American and Iran’s mutual war against ISIS.
Officials have denied any direct coordination between the US and Iran, who are both active in Iraq. Whatever the contents of the letter, however, the fact that a letter was sent at all proves that US policy is anything but “unchanged.”
Glad to hear. Occasionally Obama shows signs of nerve cell activity. Now how about a letter to Assad and Putin?
And find and fire the jerk who's leaking stuff to the WSJ.
That's why Obama is a failed president, he is not man enough to come clean and tell the American people what his policies are…..talk about transparency.
Illusions of good — Hiding intent to be enriched upon our misery
A product of Chicago gangster politics, hand picked and given $2 billion by the corporate rich to be their star performer, surely Obama will go down in history as the pathological liar most hurtful and hateful to ever occupy the White House.
I'm guessing this is why "that guy" was called "chickenshit a few weeks ago…
Then they need to find the tool who is telling "that guy" and fire him/her. And seeing as how there are neocons inside the tent instead of outside the encampment perimeter, I'm betting they're not sorry. They're also probably not concerned if the boss finds out because they know he doesn't have the stones to fire them.
Surely Americans should be able to understand that negotiations in the back room are well over the intelligence level of most of them to understand. But surely the right will play politics with this for the sake of beating on Obama more. Right Shirley?
