Ahmedinejad is a trip...
The first section of Mike Wallace's interview has just aired. Total back-pedaling on what he meant on the thrice asked question of whether or not Israel should be wiped off the map, Ahmedinjad is showing himself to be a skilled spin-meister.
His answer to why Iran is seeking nuclear technology was totally unconvincing as well.
It is generally also interesting to see the liberal socialist journalist getting pushed around by the Islamofacist socialist. Wallace - at least in the first segment was in deep over his head.
7:25pm
Second segment begins interestingly...
Wallace basically carps to giving Ahmedinejad the platform for the crazy man to address the American people directly.
WHAT? Where does Ahmed get his democrat talking points - 1% of the U.S. population in prison, and 45 million without healthcare... Ahmed for the DNC in 2008!
Mike Wallace injects the "Christ" aspect of Ahmed's letter - seemingly out of context.
Then Ahmed is back to the DNC talking points - citing the President's approval rating. And Ahmed reveals a not so veiled threat.
Now Wallace humanizes him, "what do you do for hobbies?"
"Do you want to have relations?" (Look for that question on the Daily Show/Colbert report.)
It is increasingly obvious that Ahmed is well coached to return to the "Bush is bad, and the U.S. wants to occupy and invade." But he is completely unwilling to discuss the Revolutionary Guard's involvement in so many situations.
