Ahmadinejad Applying for US Visa, Avoids Crossing Arizona………………

“Mahmoud Ahmadinejad seeks US visa ahead of nuclear meet. The US says Iran is trying to build a nuclear weapon, but Tehran denies this. The US ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, said: "My understanding is that as of today he (Mr Ahmadinejad) has filed an application for a visa." Tehran says its nuclear energy programme is for peaceful, civilian purposes………”

I imagine he will get his visa, but only a visitor’s visa which won’t allow him to work or enroll in college. He won’t need to travel through Mexico and sneak into the beautiful but confusing State of Arizona which suddenly looks unappealing to anyone a shade darker than John McCain and JD Heywood.
He will get his visa, given the agreement between the US and the UN. At least the meetings will be interesting now that Ahmadinejad will be attending. There will surely be some fireworks, at least some firecrackers, as long as he avoids Columbia University and its very nervous president.
Now if Hugo Chavez and Muammar Qadhafi were coming too, that would more than make up for the extremely uptight Chinese and Saudis.
