An invitation to talk

let's see if dear leader has the courtesy to respond or whether he will blow it off just like he does everything else...
Iran's president has written to President Bush proposing "new solutions" to their differences, a spokesman in Tehran said Monday.

Government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham said the letter would be the first in 27 years from an Iranian leader to an American president.

The letter was sent via the Swiss Embassy, which hosts a U.S. interests section in Tehran, Elham told a news conference.

The United States has had no diplomatic relations with Iran since the 1979 storming of the American Embassy in Tehran.

In the letter, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad proposes "new solutions for getting out of international problems and current fragile situation of the world," Elham said.

if ahmadinejad can swallow his pride enough to make such an offer, why can't the so-called leader of the free world respond in kind...? an even better question is why didn't bush take the initiative...? but we know already what the spin will be... i can hear it all now... "ahmadinejad blinked first..." puh-l-e-e-e-e-eze...
