Iran's supreme leader urged the Iraqi president on Tuesday to seek a timetable for the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, saying the American presence harms the country.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei met with Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, who is paying a three-day visit to Iran, a country the United States accuses of meddling in Iraq but that is closely allied to Iraq's new Shiite and Kurd-dominated leadership.
Well imagine that. The Democrats here at home are on the same side of this issue as the mad Mullahs in Iran. Probably for different reasons (its just politics for the Democrats, for Iran its getting the US out of Iraq so the terrorists they're funding over there can turn back the clock on the country's new freedom) but one would hope that it would give more than a few leftists politicians a moment of pause.
One would hope that, anyway.
