Broncobama: “OK, then let’s push it ahead until, oh—mid-October? Once I get the debt ceiling raised, my Brother, I’ll have more flexibility to give you everything you want.”

“Still not interested? Hmmm.”
“OK, I’ll give you one of Biden’s granddaughters ...
Still no, ouch—you’re tough!”

Could Obama possibly be a bigger fool than to put himself in that position?

Maybe Obama should have waited until Iran ends the “Death to America” national holiday.

Exactly. (0’s) actions are speaking louder than words. No need to talk.

“President Obama offered to have an “encounter” with his Iranian counterpart, but was turned down”

The folks back in Tehran just wouldn’t understand...

Quite right. Obama already gave away his advantage by acting like the supplicant. Yielded the power to this novice Iranian figurehead, same as the old figurehead incidentally.

"Amateurs" is putting it kindly.
