		<description>&quot;We need tough, direct negotiations, not just with Iran but also with our allies, especially Russia, to get them to support us in presenting Iran with credible carrots and sticks.&quot;

I think that is called deploying an &quot;anti-missile&quot; shield in Eastern Europe to protect againt &quot;Rogue State&quot; missiles, but wll somehow have no effect against magical Russian Missiles.

It seems to me that the Chinese were not doing as much as they could to disourage Kim until the Japanses decided they needed a missile shield to defend against N Korean missiles, but of course, the &quot;Magical&quot; Chinese missiles could stil get thru whatever missile shield the Japanese put up.

Of course we all know Chinese and Russian missiles defy the laws of physics, because the Chinese and Russians have said so.

Diplomacy is the art of convincing the other guy that what is in my interest is in his interest.

If the Russians don&#039;t care if their nuclear deterrent is rendered completely useless, they will let the Iranians get nukes, in which case every nation in the world will have to have an anti-missile system, which will probably work as well against Russian and Chinese nukes as Iranian nukes.</description>

		<description>I am so tired of hearing this nonsense. Bill Clinton was president for 8 years and all he did was talk talk talk. And what did it get us? Iran was not our ally when he left office. North Korea was not disarmed.

The Korean and Iranian regime are evil. If they are not then what exactly does Richardson think they are? Unloved? Do they act out because they have low self esteem?</description>

		<description>Well, Jules, one can hardly beat your comments on this.  I say that because they were so close to my own.

His constituents may be idiots, but that doesn&#039;t mean that the whole of the American electorate is made up of idiots.  There are too many, I grant you.  But this guy talks as though we&#039;ve all been lobotomized, and are therefore bereft of a functioning memory.</description>

Unfortunately,  the Norks stole his wallet once already.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Richardson’s not an idiot.&lt;/i&gt;

He impersonates one well though, right?  The Iranians and Norks would play him like a Steinway and roll him like a Bowery bum.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Tough Talk!&lt;/strong&gt;

Kumbaya, My Lord Jules Crittenden If another aircraft carrier group in the Gulf and a couple of detentions in Iraq made Ahmadinejad sound like a flower child, this news ought to make him start sounding like Gandhi: Israel is negotiating</description>

		<description>I read that Richardson was considered more of a &quot;center left&quot; than &lt;i&gt;Hillary!&lt;/i&gt;, and possibly a better Demoractic candidate for President......an opinion that I see was badly misinformed.</description>

		<description>Hey Bill, New Mexico, what?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Richardson_(politician)

He visited Nicaragua, Guatemala, Cuba, Peru, India, North Korea, Bangladesh, Nigeria, and Sudan to represent U.S. interests.

You did a fine job, Bill. With the exception of India and maybe Peru, all of them are Leftist and screwed up.

Christ you&#039;re as bad as Al Gore, every where the nut bag goes as to Global Warming, it snows, or is already under 10 feet of it.

Hey Bill? Do me a favor, stay away from India. I may need my Dell worked on.</description>
