DID YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR TAX MONEY JUST PAYED FOR ...I`D SAY JUST ANOTHER OVER REACH OF PRESIDENTIAL FLAGRANCY , HOW NICE WHILE WE STARVE IN AMERICA ... Iranian Pres. Hassan Rouhani notified the media of a “special gift” given to him by Pres. Barack Obama when they spoke in a historic meeting over the weekend. On Sept. 28, Obama presented Rouhani with a 2,700-year-old Persian artifact worth over $1 million. The artifact is a 7th century B.C. silver cup in the shape of a winged Griffin, which is a creature with the head of an eagle and body of a lion. The Persian cup was apparently taken from a cave in Iran and seized by U.S. custom officials when a fine-art dealer attempted to smuggle it into the U.S. in 2003. Rouhani praised Obama for giving “it back as a special gift to the Iranian nation.” RELATED: Egypt Charges Pres.
