Hot Dog, Hot Dog, Hot Diggity Dog!

Hey guys, what are you doing this July 4th? Well, if you are an Iranian diplomat, there is an open invitation to attend Independence Day festivities at American embassies.
You know, if you can stop killing your own citizens long enough to make the trip.
Or, if North Korea doesn’t launch a missile at Hawaii.
Iranians will have to decide whether they want to attend Fourth of July celebrations at U.S. embassies, President Obama said Tuesday, linking their attendance to the potential for warming between the two nations.
“I think that we have said that if Iran chooses a path that abides by international norms and principles, then we are interested in healing some of the wounds of 30 years in terms of U.S.-Iranian relations. But that is a choice that the Iranians are going to have to make,” Obama said during a press conference in the White House briefing room.
Excuse me, Mr. President, but in case you haven’t noticed – and judging by yesterday’s press conference, you haven’t – the Iranians are rather busy quelling dissent and shooting peaceful protesters to be bothered with a cookout. Idiot.
Despite a crackdown on protesters by the Iranian government, State Department spokesman Ian Kelley on Monday reaffirmed the invitation to Iranian diplomats to attend Independence Day parties at U.S. embassies around the world next month.
Kelly said that no one is going to take back offers for Iranian officials to join the festivities, even as the Islamic Republic’s leaders threaten violence against protesters at home demonstrating against falsified presidential election results.
“There’s no thought to rescinding the invitations to Iranian diplomats,” Kelly said. “We have made a strategic decision to engage on a number of fronts with Iran. And — and we tried many years of isolation, and we’re pursuing a different path now.”
Well, the Obama administration is not going let a little thing like murder stand in the way of deep, meaningful discussions and negotiations in the interest of peace!
Late last month, the State Department encouraged officials at all U.S. embassies and consulates to ask their Iranian counterparts to attend the July 4 parties, which generally feature speeches about American values, fireworks, hot dogs and hamburgers. (H/T – FOXNews)
Yeah, let’s offer radical Islamists some hot dogs. That’ll win them over. I swear to God, this administration cannot be more clueless.

Will be interesting to see where the Gov gets the hot dogs….most hotdogs are not halal. Some are (Shreek!) Kosher like Hebrew National.
Oh…..and don’t forget the marshmallows……we need “s’mores” of this……..(spit)
Comparison:
Ooh, you know what’s good on the grill? Kielbasa!
And don’t forget to put cheese and bacon on the burgers.
Will pork be on the menu?
Grilled Linguica is the best… hands down…
…but back to the issue… The United States has been Irans go to Boogeyman for the past thirty years. Whenever there’s a problem, they could always count on deflecting blame to the great Satan.
Irans leadership will not part with their beloved Boogeyman. (Not even for a Kosher hot dog)
Don’t forget the potato salad. Give them the stuff that’s been sitting out in the sun for a couple hours.
Nah, Hawaiian pig roast, buried in the sand–so they can help dig it up and insult themselves.
Here’s some law enforcement news from the other side of the commonwealth you may have missed–well, my take on it anyway.

Why not invite the opposition to the U.S. embassy? No need to waste some grilled Hebrew National All Meat Hot Dogs with relish, spicy mustard, sauerkraut, and maybe a grilled slice of salami to wrap the dog. One bite of this fine Kosher technology will make converts out of all of them.
cbullitt..That wouldn’t work if they saw the pig buried in the sand they would start stoning it thinking it was an adulterer. Now I’m thinking of a cookout like they had for the irregulars in “Outlaw Jose Wales’. That would be nice.
Jon, I like your style.
Stan – Serving Hebrew National franks would be the perfect “Frak you” to the Iranians.
RAPH – Maybe they’ll set off some fireworks . . . into a protester’s chest?
Mrs. Crankipants – Don’t like kielbasa. The Slovak side of my family disowned me for that.
Mark – BACON!!!
Sully – We’re about tied with Israel for that moniker.
GroovyVic – Mmm . . . potato salad!
cbullitt – Oh, for cripes’ sake!
RWG – Sauerkraut rules. I could eat that on anything.
Jon – Now that would be newsworthy!
I would like to shove a hot dog down O-hole’s mouth…
And which one of your friends still thinks this Precedent is the bee’s knees?
Muslims…..pork by products. Muslims….pork by products. Yep, works for me.
