You take the high road...and I'll take the low road...
In another major foreign policy problem/disaster for the Bush Administration, Iran is giving them the finger on nukes.
Iran's foreign minister said that Iran won't accept any new internationally imposed restrictions on it's nuclear program and that the world must recognize Iran as a nuclear capable nation.
In a predictable move, the Bush Administration is pushing the Interational Atomic Energy Association (IAEA)to go to the UN Security Council and impose sanctions on Iran for violation of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.
It doesn't occur to these guys that they've squandered the United States' moral high ground on nuclear proliferation since Bush is pushing for a new generation of nukes himself. In fact they've squandered our moral authority in general as well by the dismissal of the Geneva Conventions and attacking a sovereign nation that didn't attack us.
How is it that Bush thinks he can expect other nations to take the high road when he's not willing to do it himself?
