I disagree because it is true Iran is helping Al Qaeda and probably training them would not be of any surprise

It's a humourous way of putting it, that also makes it relatable to otherwise unaware Americans.

Iran is Shi'ite.

Al Qaeda is fundamnetlaist Sunni.

Sunnis, especially Fundies, HATE Shi'ites.

You lied, again. Ahmidinejad would sooner suck an Aemrican's cock then give anything more than handshake to Osama Bin Laden.

It's more like saying the seals are training the otters.

> McCain said something like this right?

Many times. In one instance, Joe LIEberman leaned over and whispered to him, and McCain backed off his statement, but then had his spokepeople go on Fox Nosie and repeat the same talking point.

Oh, and I just thought of another great analogy. Syaing Iran is training Al Qaeda is like saying the Union trained the Confederacy. *smile*

A humourous way to look at it. Also, a bit of a hyperbole. A more accurate analogy might be the Boston Red Sox and the Yankees helping universites train the same college kids still in the free agency, the kids being the crazies. From the way matty described it, Islam is really, really complcated, where you can "switch" sides all the time. Well, at least in Afganistan anyway.
