WASHINGTON - The United States said on Friday it would expedite Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s request for a visa to address the UN Security Council when it votes on a new sanctions resolution against his country next week.

State Department spokesman Sean McCormack urged Ahmadinejad to use the appearance to do an about face and announce the suspension of his country’s uranium enrichment program as demanded under previous UN resolutions.

1. Reminds me of the old Bill Hicks joke on Saddam

"The CIA has a plot to assassinate him. It's one they've used to get rid of world leaders before. The only problem is convincing Saddam...........to fly to Dallas."

2. I saw a bumpersticker yesterday in Austin.

It said, "I wish I'd met Bill Hicks".

Me, too.
