Another Republican warns Bush about Iran.
You had better listen, Junior. Don't let Karl convice you that Iran is you savior. It isn't. It will be you very fast undoing.
It will not be so easy to fog the facts this time.
Khaleej Times Online:
"WASHINGTON - The United States should hold direct talks with Iran on its nuclear program and go slow on pressing for sanctions, contrary to Bush administration strategy, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman said on Sunday.
Breaking with President George W. Bush's insistence on a multilateral approach through the UN Security Council, Sen. Richard Lugar said direct US talks with Iran would be useful as part of a broad dialogue on energy.
Lugar, on the ABC television program 'This Week,' said it was too soon to press hard for sanctions aimed at halting Iran's suspected nuclear weapons program even as the Bush administration prepares to do so at a meeting in Moscow on Tuesday.
'I believe, for the moment, that we ought to cool this one, too,' said Lugar, a Republican from Indiana. 'We need to make more headway diplomatically.'
Spokesmen for the White House and the State Department had no immediate comment."
