US must drop "cowboy" attitude: Iran President
2010-07-20
[Al Arabiya Latest]The United States must drop its "cowboy" attitude if it wants to hold dialogue with Iran over its nuclear program, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Monday as news surfaced that Tehran is is using a bank in Germany to beat sanctions.

"We are for negotiations, but to do so you have to sit down like a good boy," Ahmadinejad said, referring to the United States, in a speech broadcast live on state television.

"They adopt a resolution to force a dialogue, but this cowboy logic has no place in Iran."

#10  At least dear George Washington didn't have to put up with being accused of being a cowboy, because the profession hadn't been invented yet.

#4  I'm sorry, but I can't help but giggle at the image of Obama in an oversize ten-gallon hat & chaps.

The Iranians really must update their insult style manuals more often than once a decade. Elsewise, they just make their leaders sound like malfunctioning ELIZA programs.

#3  "cowboy" attitude
They always say that like it's a bad thing. To an American, however, it's a high compliment. We all grew up wanting to be cowboys (except maybe someone who went to school in Indonesia...).
