Iranian madman meets with American left-wing nuts

Birds of a feather flock together. He desires the destruction of Western civilization and they are most useful idiots.
Obama Bundler Meets With Mahmoud?

"Here’s a story you won’t hear about in the “mainstream” media. A coalition of groups representing leftwing pacifists and anti-American radicals met yesterday afternoon with Iranian “president” Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Manhattan. The meeting was billed as an opportunity for those on the Left to share their thoughts with Iran’s dictator about ways to “address the conflict between our governments” and to “better understand each other’s perspectives.”

Really? What is a better perspective on Ahmadinejad’s belief that the Holocaust didn’t happen or his stated desire to “wipe Israel off the map”?

I think it is safe to say that the vast majority of those attending yesterday’s meeting were supporters of Barack Obama, but one in particular, Jodie Evans, has donated the maximum $2,300 to the Obama campaign and is listed on the campaign’s website as an Obama bundler – someone who has agreed to raise between $50,000 and $100,000 for Barack Obama’s campaign. Evans is also the co-founder of the radical “blame America first” group CodePink.

After the meeting, CodePink put out a press release in which it stated, “U.S. government officials are quick to stir up hostilities with Iran, but the American people are tired of war. The peace movement represents the sentiment of the majority of Americans who want our two countries to find ways to work together and improve relations.”

Really? They want the American government to go groveling to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the way they did, to get a “better perspective” on why the Islamic Republic refuses to recognize Israel’s right to exist, supports terrorism and homicide bombings and preaches “Death to America”?

Obviously, John McCain is not their candidate. But I would hope that no American president would follow such absurd advice. Barack Obama ought to immediately denounce this outrageous meeting and return every dime that Evans has donated and raised for his campaign."
