For the moment, I’ll file this under “Believe it when I see it,” but it’s nonetheless encouraging:
“Iran and the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency are near agreement on a plan that could lift the veil on some of the Islamic Republic’s past nuclear research, U.N. officials said Tuesday in an announcement that raised hopes for a more comprehensive nuclear accord when Iranian officials meet with six world powers later in the week.
Yukiya Amano, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said U.N. and Iranian officials settled most of their differences during talks Monday in the Iranian capital and were moving toward a formal pact on making Iran’s nuclear activities more transparent….
“We had expansive and intensive talks in a positive atmosphere,” Amano told Iranian television after the hastily arranged meeting in Tehran.
Iran’s chief nuclear negotiator, Saeed Jalili, also hailed what he described as “very good talks” with the IAEA leader. “God willing, we will have good cooperation in the future,” he added.”
In a separate line of negotiations, six major countries including the United States will meet with Iranian representatives beginning Wednesday to discuss a deal in which Iran would dismantle its nuclear infrastructure and surrender its stores of highly enriched uranium. In return, harsh economic sanctions against Iran would be lifted.
The odds of success in that negotiation would probably increase if the IAEA inspection deal is finalized, suggesting that Iran is finally willing to concede to international demands. In the past, however, Iran has repeatedly seemed to agree to deals only to back out of them later.
Will this time prove different? Perhaps so. Iran has never before faced economic sanctions so broad and so well-enforced internationally. It’s also pretty clear that if these negotiations fail, military intervention becomes a much more serious option, and that’s a route that nobody should be eager to travel.
Stay tuned. Success is far from guaranteed, but it’s at least worth the effort. As an old Iranian proverb puts it, “Trust in God — but tie your camel tight.”

“Thulsa I did not imply in any way that you had been in any way rude or insulting.
My point was — and feel free to correct me if I’m wrong — that you are too intelligent to TRULY believe that $1.80 gasoline was anything but a very temporary aberration caused by a global economic collapse.
Again, maybe I was wrong in that assessment.”- Jay
Jay,
Seems to me that you just singled me out for a 2nd straight day in a somewhat scornful and vindictive manner no matter how polite I’ve been today. I didn’t call anyone any names or ridicule anyone or do anything to deserve that commentary. And as that black guy aptly pointed out my comment was no dumber than Adam’s original comment that Obama is somehow responsible for falling gas prices. Funny but you did not note how absurd that comment was.
Nevertheless I’ll address your statement. Gas was abnormally cheap at $1.81 and much of it did have to do with the global recession. However, the point of what we have been talking about amongst ourselves is that global demand probably will drop substantially given looming recession in Europe. I was thinking about the European crisis as well even though we hadn’t yet broached the topic.
And on top of that there have been other times in history when gas was cheap. When Clinton came into office it was $18 a barrel if I remember correctly although I’ve not adjusted it for inflation.
And thirdly as you well know dollar denominated purchases of gas have a lot to do with things since the dollar has lost something like half its value since Obama came into office. That loss in value is attributed mostly to our ever worsening deficit/debt situation. And I suspect you know that and that the dollar- which is under continual decline under Obama due to our worsening financial situation, is also is a key to the actual cost of gas.
If you are going to treat me in a derogatory manner when I make a comment that is anything but rude then just tell me now and I’ll just gladly cease and desist from posting on your blog. Or if you just want me to leave voluntarily just say so and I will.

Here’s hoping.
IF an agreement is reached, uranium stores are let go, etc. the US needs to avoid the chest-pounding and strutting (altho individual politicians will not be able to help themselves). Iran will likely play it that this proves they never had military intent and their sole intent was to get the West to recognize Iranian preeminence in the Gulf and to be consulted blah blah blah. This needs to be treated as both sides getting what they wanted in a mutually agreeable framework.
It will be interesting, right before an election, to see if Republican politicians find obstacles with verification and such. I can almost guarantee they will. It would be despicable for them to put partisan political interest above national interest. But it would not be the first time, for either party.

Let’s examine your statement “After that we backed Saddam Hussein in the Iran-Iraq war” compared to mine “The United States slightly favored the Iraq’s but not much.”
Reagan was caught sailing arms to Iran and yet we were “backing” Iraq. Also, the Iraq’s attacked one of our ships. Look through the article. Where did most of the Iraqi weapons come from?The Soviet Union. Where did most of the Iranian weapons come from the United States(prior to the Iranian Revolution). Remember the Scud missile. It is a Soviet weapon. They were still using them in the Gulf War.
I believe the statement “slightly favored” is more accurate. The main supporter of Iraq was the Soviet Union.

Iran is today’s North Korea. North Korea has China behind them, Iran has oil. The same exact cycle will occur with Iran as the US has taken with N. Korea. We can’t do anything to either of them because of our own weakened state. China owns us and China backs both of them.

Aw, Doomy, Jesus wuvs you. And if memory serves (well I’m not a young chick anymore, so it sometimes doesn’t), you are never mean or hateful, so while we may not agree on much, I appreciate your input here. And hey, if everybody agreed, this wouldn’t be much fun. We also would not expand/broaden our world view. Keep up the good fight!

(CNN) – Video of a North Carolina pastor preaching that gays and lesbians should be rounded up inside an electric fence is going viral on the Internet, two weeks after North Carolina passed a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage and President Barack Obama voiced personal support for legalizing such marriages.
“I figured a way out, a way to get rid of all the lesbians and queers, but I couldn’t get it past the Congress,” Pastor Charles L. Worley can be seen telling his Providence Road Baptist Church congregation in the video, which had more than 250,000 YouTube views by Tuesday.
“Build a great big, large fence – 50 or a 100 miles long – and put all the lesbians in there,” Worley went on to say in his May 13 sermon at his Maiden, North Carolina, church. “Fly over and drop some food. Do the same thing with the queers and the homosexuals, and have that fence electrified so they can’t get out. Feed them. And you know in a few years, they’ll die out. You know why? They can’t reproduce.”
“Listen, all of the Sodomites, the lesbians, and all of the … what’s that word? Gays – I didn’t wanna say ‘queers’ – that say we don’t love you, I love you more than you love yourself,” Worley said, according to WBTV. “I’m praying for you to be saved.”

Headline: “It’s time to investigate the IRS”
“Richard Nixon ordered the IRS to conduct tax audits of those on his infamous “Enemies List.” Now, a spate of investigations and leaks coming out of President Obama’s IRS raises concerns that this administration may also be using the power of the nation’s most feared agency to silence its political opponents.”

He was wrong to say that ………. competely wrong !
Jesus would never have said or felt that but He did say to the woman taken in adultery:
“Neither do I condemn you (to death by stoning/or kept inside an electric fence) but go and SIN no more.”

Heard this today:
Obama is making a campaign tatic of going after Romney for Bain, etc. There were many employees who lost jobs but Romney saved many companys (and those jobs) by making tough decisions that the CEO’s had failed to make.
Of course it’s O.K. for Obama to have closed down hundreds of car delearships totally against their will and imagine the number of jobs lost there !
WHAT HYPOCRISY !

Yeah, go Catholic patriarchical hierarchy. Most Catholics, okay many, do not agree with this very old stuff or with old, white, out of touch males who support it. The church I knew from birth left me long ago. I think it was just about the time when Rome decreed that my daughter could no longer be an alta server just because she was a GIRL. Yes, I am still bitter & angry. And when my Momma kept trying to convince & pray me back to that church, I told her I would consider it when that church ordains a woman. Okay, rant over. Thanks for listening.

What bothers me is that the real Christians are not lined up outside his “church” screaming to high heavens about this hijacking of their faith…
