Ballsy. Stupid, but ballsy.

What's the Iranian word for "straightjacket"?

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, our favorite Middle-Eastern hothead, is at it again. We don't know how he does it, but once again he has raised the bar. When it comes to borderline warlords, this guy is second to none.

He is good.

The latest jibba-jabba is about Iran's nuclear power program, which has come under the scrutiny of pretty much every civilized country in the world (except for Cuba and Venezuela), as well as the blue-nosers down at the UN. Everyone wants Iran to stop its nuclear development, and have threatened to call them before the UN's Security Council. Mahmoud countered by saying that he will not allow his program to be monitored.

Here's the kicker: If the UN does tell them to stop, Mahmoud said he will have no choice but to begin uranium enrichment, which we all know is the first step to developing A-bombs.

Hey Mahmoud, here's a bit of advice: If you want to use nuclear power to light your homes, run your stoplights, and warm your citizens, fine. But when you start saying you wanna nuke the Jews, people are gonna get upset.

Houston, we have a problem.

I don't say this very often, but I sure am glad I'm not living in Israel. Your prime minister is riding the midnight train to Slab City, those Islamic militants just won the election next door in Palestine, and now a bloodthirsty Iranian tyrant is saying he's gonna send a couple warheads your way. That's a spicy meatball.
