"It's true that I called you a lazy, dishonest SOB who smelled like a goat and looked like a rat, but I think you misunderstood me ... Don't you realize that my remarks were taken out context, you stupid POS?"

The Iranian president needs to be taken out of context, preferably by lethal argument.

Oh, I see. The Iranian President doesn't speak what he means.

So... Why are you, the Iranian Interior Minister, listening to someone whose speech isn't what he means.

After all, he didn't really mean for you to come out and say this.

Actually, the Iranian president said that he just wanted "breathing room" for Iran and was committed to resolving The Jewish Question...

How is his jack-@ss lackey's statement any better? The sooner this place (Iran) becomes the world's largest mirror, the better. The Iranian POS (president, whatever) meant what he said; end of discussion.

"(President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad) did not mean to raise this matter."

Translation: To early to let the 'cat out of the bag.' Should have waited until the nukes were ready.

I'll bet he didn't!!

He didn't mean to "raise this matter" at this time...perhaps he was saving it for later but just couldn't contain himself.

So eaten up with hate...and probably a tad nervous when he looks at all of his borders.
