On what I would do as PresidentI would probably sit down with (Iranian President) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and go “Ok, we understand why you hate us, because we financed Saddam taking you out. Do you understand why we are scared of you? Can you see that? Can you see that when you talk about Israel like that, you offend, bum and outrage a lot of people with the capabilities to
squash your fucking country like a cockroach? Do you get that?
Do you realize that we can come in tomorrow and take all your shit and fuck your wife? Do you realize that? Good. Hate to do it, don’t want to do it. If you want nuclear power, great. Let’s get the IAEA in, the UN and all of that because there are a whole lot of countries in the world that are terrified of you guys but I don’t want your children freezing in the winter because I like your kids because, you know, they are not anything like you.”
So, I would be trying to sit down with these countries that Condoleeza Rice has drawn lines in the sand with and go “Look. Let’s go back to the intellectual approach of negotiation and hearing each other out and let’s become part of the planet again.” I know that sounds a little Hippee-dippee and liberal but when Ahmadinejad says “bring in the UN. Let’s do it by the book” and Condoleeza Rice says “We are done talking” and John Bolton starts pulling stuff out of his ass saying “Well, you know, they have a ballistic missile program.” You just made that up, dude! They don’t have one that you know of, or if you are asked to comment on it, you say that you don’t know, so what’s it going to be? You can’t lie to everyone all the time because there are some smart people out there that are going to call you out. But, with this Teflon administration, they get called out all the time. And, this is what makes me mad because in my low station on the food chain, I’m held accountable for every bounced check, every appointment I’m late to, believe me. And, these guys just do all kinds of stuff. We already proved that you lied about Iraq. How the hell do you think we are going to go in with you into Iran?
I know why we are going into Iran. We want the northern border with Turkmenistan, Caspian gas and oil. That’s my theory.

Like the CBC interview; a suspicious lack of depth or 'tangibles'...the superficiality is telling.
...and this guy is considered a Progressive ...?
