RESPECT FOR OBAMA'S BACKBONE - AT 10:06 A.M. ET:  Iran continues to show its deep respect for our president' resolve and firmness.  You know, they must be shaking in their boots.  From Fox News:

After claiming to successfully test-fire two short-range missiles during drills Sunday by the elite Revolutionary Guard, Iran will test-fire a missile on Monday that could have the capability to hit Israel and U.S. bases in the Gulf region, Reuters reported.

The drills are a show of force days after the U.S. and its allies condemned Tehran over a newly revealed underground nuclear facility that was being constructed secretly

The Guards on Monday will test-fire the surface-to-surface Shahab 3 missile, which Iranian officials say has a range of around 1,240 miles, potentially putting Israel and U.S. bases in the Gulf within reach, according to state radio. It has been tested several times before.

COMMENT:  We will be sitting down with the Iranians on Thursday.  On our side of the table they will see Barack Hussein Obama Jr., a man who openly said this week that he does not seek "victory" in the confrontation with Iran. 

How frightened do you think the Iranians will be?
