rEALISM ALWAYS YIELDS TO AMERICANISM:

Ahmadinejad compares Obama to Bush (Reuters, 6/25/09)

Obama said on Tuesday he was "appalled and outraged" by a post-election crackdown and Washington withdrew invitations to Iranian diplomats to attend U.S. Independence Day celebrations on July 4 -- stalling efforts to improve ties with Tehran.

"Mr Obama made a mistake to say those things ... our question is why he fell into this trap and said things that previously (former U.S. President George W.) Bush used to say," the semi-official Fars News Agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying.

Pity the poor pragmatists....they so badly want "stability" but Americans recognize our mission in the world.
