The sad part is the American Press loves this man. He has become a hero to the Progressives. Even when he says non Progressive things, they cheer him. No doubt the media will try to force Obama and McCain to accept Ahmadinejad’s debate challenge.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday he was ready to debate the men running for US president when he visits New York for the UN General Assembly,and dismissed Western threats of more sanctions over Tehran’s nuclear drive.
The outspoken president, who caused a storm of controversy during a visit last year, said: “I am ready for a debate with the US presidential candidates over global issues in the presence of the media at the UN headquarters.
“I have no plans in my schedule to meet with US politicians,” he told a press conference.
“Last year, I said I was ready to meet with (President George W.) Bush. But now he is at the end of his term and (a meeting) will not impact our relations and future.”
