Iran is a Problem

Clinton has doubts that Iran is open to discussions - International Herald Tribune

You know, I rarely agree with either of the Clintons, but in this case I do.  However, I doubt it is for the reasons she has.  Actually, this goes along the same lines of how I felt that Rice was a poor choice to work with Iran.  Namely, cultural values towards women.  Do you really think the Iranians would have any respect for us if they were to negotiate with Hilary?  I think not.  Their view of women is so low, and then to have one so emblematic of what the conceive is wrong with American women would just be icing on the cake.  Of course, I do not think they are far offin Mrs. Clinton's case, though I do not think she really would represent all of what is wrong with American women any more than A Rod represents all that is wrong with American men.
