Iranians `need a stop button,' Rice says

WASHINGTON - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Sunday she'll negotiate directly with Iran if it halts its nuclear program, but the Iranians claimed it's too late to put the brakes on its uranium enrichment research.

With the U.N. Security Council preparing a slate of new economic sanctions to further isolate Tehran, Rice insisted Sunday the Iranians "need a stop button" on their nuke plans.

"They need to stop enriching and reprocessing, and then we can sit down and talk about whatever is on Iran's mind," Rice said on "Fox News Sunday."

"I've said that I am prepared to meet my counterpart or an Iranian representative at any time if Iran will suspend its enrichment and reprocessing activities. That should be a clear signal," she added.

Iranian radio, meanwhile, quoted President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accusing the Bush administration of "bullying" Iran, saying U.S. officials were "concerned about the collapse of their hegemony and hollow power."

...

Now, you may ask "Why do they need an Easy button"? Good question! Simply put, the USA is led by an ignorant monkey who won't listen to truth or reason, and gets an angry and confused look on his face when you use big words. So, any amount of logic will only make them attack you quicker.

Now, if you had an Easy button, you would just be able to press it and *Poof*, all of your troubles (read: Bush) would disappear.
