President Barack Obama sent a verbal message to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei by way of Turkey, stating for the first time that the United States would accept a civilian nuclear program in the Islamic Republic if there is a guarantee it will never be used militarily, the Washington Post reported.

"It's a strange message to send," a critical Bret Stephens, the Wall Street Journal columnist, said on Fox News on Friday. "What's worrisome is that almost every country that has acquired nuclear weapons capability has done so through the ruse of a civilian nuclear program."

Obama should change his name to BARRACK CHAMBERLAIN. We have without a doubt the worst president in the history of the U.S. coupled with the worst advisors ever. One and done for sure.

Yes, the idiots at Free Republic.

Satirical. idiotic, off the wall, strange response, humorous, insightful, investigative posts are the norm here.

You're saying that some of the best informed, educated, high tax paying and economically struggling individuals, from many walks of social life are idiots

I strongly suggest you attempt a look in a mirror to recognize that word.

Obama gets on one knee when he gives a bow.

Why isn’t Greenpeace and all of the other usual greeny groups protesting this. If Iran can have nuclear power plants, why can’t we have them?

Iran nukes is not an inconsequential subject and thru time there have been many threads on the subject, it is very important to freepers.

You would think, given the importance, that freepers would know more about it. Since the freepers don't have a clue, they must be idiots.

Islam is a theocracy, there’s no distinction over there. Obama knows this. He just can’t help lying every time he speaks, it’s the only thing that comes natural to him.

And to finish your sentence, “...AT THE WORSE TIME POSSIBLE!” I’m starting to believe this is Armageddon in the works and 0bama is there by design.

Is that a Trojan horse I see falling from the sky?

Don't look up. The Trojan Horse has already been welcomed into the White House.
