If imitation is truly the sincerest form of flattery then President Obama’s administration is just bustin’ buttons with pride tonight!
Yesterday, Iran offered to help the US, and specifically President Obama, plug the oil leak in the Gulf.
“If Americans and Britons and also the Western companies find themselves incapable of capping the oil spill, [they can] ask Iran, [we] will study the case, and send… IRGC experts to the region to help prevent the continuation of this serious crisis,” Qasemi added.
I know, your asking, “what about this is imitation?”
Do you really think Iran is sincere about helping to plug the leak. Or, for that matter, do you think they have better abilities than the rest of the world? No, neither do I!
Using Rahm Emanuel’s own approach, Iran is taunting the US, never allowing a crisis to go to waste!
In a follow up question I need to ask, Rahm, when you uttered those now infamous words, did you ever consider that the crisis that you wanted to exploit just might be a real one that required real solutions?
