I swear, the President could not have sounded more naive if he had included a line like that.

I’m over on FB and I see that one of my liberal friends has posted how much she liked the address.

Sigh.

It is not about not liking people who are liberal or who has the right to believe what. It is very hard not to feel polarized when you see your country on a fast track to financial, social and political hell and the President is shoveling the coal just as fast as he can.

But, back to his Nowruz address. He spoke of “diplomacy that addresses the full range of issues before us” and “engagement that is honest and grounded in mutual respect.”

Well, if only the people in Iran were able to hear that. And if only we could all trust that he was saying one thing, but making plans for another. And if only the Iranian leadership gave a d— what the Great Satan really had to say.

Alas, he’s looking like the last country bumpkin to fall off the truck on the way to the big city.

I’m off to research how to build my own underground bomb shelter. . .
