Welcome to the Jungle Part 3

Well, it appears as though President-Elect Obama is settling into his new jungle quarters just fine. Gleeful that Obama had won the election, the kooky Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad decided to send a warm letter of congratulations to Mr. Obama. While Obama was quick to reply to many of the letters sent to him,

On the American side, while Barack Obama responded gracefully and personally to messages of congratulation from other world leaders, he held back from doing so with Mr Ahmadinejad, mindful of the political implications of such a gesture.

He said he would be reviewing the Iranian president's letter and responding appropriately, rather than reacting in a "knee-jerk fashion".
