President Nicolas Sarkozy's frequent rhetorical pummeling of Tehran offers a stark contrast with the calm calls for dialogue from President Barack Obama. As the U.S. and its partners prepare for an Oct. 1 meeting with Iranian negotiators to discuss Iran's nuclear program, Sarkozy has played attack dog in chief, snarling impatiently that Tehran must be given deadlines to cooperate with international demands or else face tough consequences.

Governor Paterson has refused to heed President Obama’s advice, however, and has committed to run for re-election anyway. He has every right to do this. Nevertheless, Governor Paterson’s refusal to the media to discuss his rationale behind neglecting Obama’s advice was not the best way to handle a very delicate situation.
