High tea with a Mr. Ahmadinejad - addendum

In Friday night's debate, Senator McCain expressed that he would never meet with Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (or other "rogue" leaders) without preconditions and painted Senator Obama as naive for saying he would do so. Obama, in defense of his position emphasized the preparation that should precede such a meeting and the manner in which such a meeting might be conducted. "It's not as if," he said to illustrate his point, "we're inviting him over for tea."

Some skeptical viewers, however, might be looking at their bracelets and wondering, "What would Jesus do?" Would he sit down for tea with Ahmadinejad?

The idea of a high tea with the Iranian president may have been presented as foolish hyperbole, but it is actually a lot more realistic than many might think:
