#1 "Hello Nancy. Loved your trip to Damascus. Would like to discuss mutual efforts to...er...diminish....the evil Booosh adminstrations' successes in the future. Believe our mutual desires for power above all else, and total immorality in achieving same would make a marriage made in ~~Qom~~ heaven. Signed 'Ahmy' "

#2 "A group of Iranian lawmakers wants to create a "friendship committee" that would open contacts with the U.S. Congress -- an unprecedented attempt to build ties at a time when Iran's hard-line leadership also appears willing to talk with the country's No. 1 enemy."

Sounds more like an attempt to take advantage of a bunch of gullible Democrats.

#3 "Iran's hard-line leadership also appears willing to talk with," the Democrats.
Help me out here, are the Democrats the number one enemy of the US or Iran?

#5 You know, a muslim would surely see this as a sign of weakness. With their economy failing, gas rationing starting this week, food subsidies being decreased, it may be just that. Now they want to talk it over with a "friendship committee". Bullshit, khamenei is sending them here for some nefarious reason because he doesn't have the staying power to win and he knows it. Tell them to FOAD.

#7 The only Iranians we should be talking to are ones who're willing to lead internal dissent and assist our military in ~~deposing~~ decapitating their mullahcracy. Anyone who is part of Iran's legitimate government should be given the bum's rush. Iran's entire economy is on the skids and our only duty is to vigorously grease them.
