Talking to Tehran - now THERE'S a concept...

what won't they think of next...?

The Bush administration is facing pressure both in the United States and overseas to drop its long-standing refusal to talk directly with Iran about its nuclear program, particularly in the wake of the unusual 18-page letter sent this week to President Bush by Iran's president.

talking... my god, you'd think it was just invented... the bizarre thing is that it took a letter from ahmadinejad to turn up the heat... un-friggingly- believable...
