Iran endorses Bush for president! No joke!

I thought for sure that this was bogus when I saw it, but after doing some research, I've verified the story in several major U.S. newspapers. It comes from an AP Wire story on Tues.

Yes folks, the Islamic Republic of Iran has officially endorsed George W. Bush for president.

It seems the Iranian government would much prefer a tough talker to someone who would actually take action against them. To quote from the article (emphasis mine):

""We should not forget that most sanctions and economic pressures were imposed on Iran during the time of Clinton," [Head of the Supreme National Security Council Hasan] Rowhani said. "And we should not forget that during Bush's era - despite his hard-line and baseless rhetoric against Iran - he didn't take, in practical terms, any dangerous action against Iran."

Rowhani is also quoted as saying, "We haven't seen anything good from Democrats."

This shows explicitly how weak Bush appears on the world stage. What's next, North Korean foreign ministers campaigning in Florida for Bush?

And more importantly, why aren't the Democrats raising holy hell to get this on the news and the front pages of papers everywhere?

Spread the word, people! This is great stuff!
