And now we have Ahmadinejad's quote of the day!
—On executions of homosexuals in Iran:In Iran we don't have homosexuals like in your country. We don't have that like in your country. ... In Iran we do not have this phenomenon. I don't know who's told you that we have this.
This would be laughable if the truth was not that they execute them. I just can't understand why the left, who say they love gay rights, want to force kids to learn tolerance in third grade, etc...are so quick in defending this thug.

And when the audience laughed and booed, he couldn’t keep from cracking a smile
Right. Because he kills them all, except perhaps the little boys he requires for himself.
Iranian people are not Gay , they are miserable.
Gay used to mean HAPPY. Now, it means being sodomized.thanks to the lefties.
Ahmadinejad has no clue how to play to his liberal leftist audience. He defended death penalty, bashed drugs and gays.
It would have been benefitial for him if he had stayed on hating Jews and Bush. That’s something the moonbats agree with.
I’d agree.
It isn’t very gay livin’ in Iran these days.
It’s going to get harder and harder for the America hating left to embrace this psycho.
I don’t know whether to laugh or upchuck.
Well, at least one of them is currently visiting NYC....
It's simple: In this specific case, the thug in question hates GW Bush, they hate GW Bush, so they (from the leftscum point of view) are on the same side. More generally, you will find very little criticism of Islamic and left-wing dictators on the left.
Check out this diary and comments on Daily Kos: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/9/24/143116/861 A couple of the commenters mention the whole "there are no gays in Iran" thing. Most are studiously ignoring it. This is classic cognitive dissonance: In their worldview, GW Bush, Christians, and conservatives are the only real evil. Anyone who opposes GW, Christians, and conservatives is good. Good people would not say such a thing. Therefore, the fact that Imadinnerjacket said exactly that simply is not registering in their "minds."
Scary, eh?
There are NO HOMOSEXUALS IN IRAN! NEEEEEHVAH!
As if it weren't already impossible. We are just seeing what they really are serious about. It doesn't matter to them that if they were Iranians he would have them all making like ripe fruit (hanging from trees). What does matter is that he hates America. And they agree with him on that.
It's their most important and only non-negotiable point.
“Well, at least one of them is currently visiting NYC....”
but his statement stands: There are none in IRAN.
Dude was seriously nervous, with the blinking and all...
To the left, it’s collateral damage. If a few fags (or a few thousand) have to be sacrificed in pursuit of the greater goal of bringing down Western capitalism — so be it. As Napoleon said, you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.
Disgusting, evil, poor excuse for a human being....
I remember seeing pics of two very young boys crying in
prison that haunt me to this day.
“It’s going to get harder and harder for the America hating left to embrace this psycho.”
Not so. The Amerca-hating Left will embrace anyone and anything that could be destructive to the welfare of America.
I thank President Bush for allowing the SCUMBAG in...It shows to the rest of the world that in AMERICA, people have the right of FREE speech.
The scum BOLLINGER should not have invinted the little P.edo in the fist place.
I think Bollinger, expected the republicans to make a big deal and forbid his enty to America. Now the little Hitler is n, the lefties are LEFT (lol) to defend his rethorics.
...but they do have the Village People
If this is true that Iran doesn’t not tolerate the deviant behaviorists at least the country does something right. Here we have Nambla that fully expects to have rights to kids of all ages and they seem to be making inroads.
Chilling isn’t it?
I wonder if any lefties feel that chill after hearing this and understand what it is we are fighting.
In general, they don't and won't: See my post above re: congnitive dissonance. Some few will, and it will be painful for them as their worldview comes apart. Most, though, won't internalize this information. It quite literally will not register with them in any meaningful way, if at all...
He also said that Iran dosen't sponsor terrorism, women in Iran were respected, and that "we love the Jewish people."
The frightening part is that many in the audience believed him.
Is that Tommie Lee Jones?
The libs will demand the military begin bombing Iran tomorrow.
Did you hear the way they LAUGHED at him when he said there were no homosexuals in Iran, never? I bet he didn’t come there expecting to be laughed at. I bet he doesn’t get laughed at much at home.
Really? Seems to me that even Jews in the leftist intelligencia hate Jews and are not so secretly on the side of people who quite literally want to exterminate the Jews: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1901492/posts
The left is becoming increasingly anti-Semetic. Just look at some common postings over on the Nutroots. Here's another example: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20070924.wahmadinejad-interv0924/CommentStory/International/home#comment1260704
Hating Jews is not verboten on the ultra-left. In fact, it apparently is becoming mandatory, just like hating GW, Christians, and conservatives, and just like advocating the continued slaughter of unborn children...
No, you don't understand. Iranians are "noble savages" who are entitled to traditional views, and these views simply cannot be judged by "western" standards! To do so would be an indefinsible act of bigotry!
The First World Left is very different from the Third World Left. The First World Left are hippies; the Third World Left are WWII-era Fascist Japan. First World Leftists will attack the United States as a totalitarian dictatorship while defending Castro, Mao, and Chavez because of their "positive achievements." First World Leftists will demand equal rights for women in the First World while defending the right of Third World Leftists to live according to pre-enlightenment, non-Eurocentric moral standards. First World Leftists have for decades excused the "homophobia" (a word I reject) of Castro and the PLO. Why Robert Mugabe is singled out for criticism by them I have no idea.
BTW, note also that the John Birch/Ron Paul rightwingers will also attack the United States government as a totalitarian dictatorship while defending Franco, Pinochet, and George Papadopoulos.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if their heads were to explode.’
Yes, but don’t under estimate their capacity for ‘Doublethink’. They can idolize a philandering accused rapist as a champion of women’s rights and exhibit racism that would cause a Klansman to blush when an ‘uppity’ black man espouses conservative viewpoints. They don’t mind when a Republican Senator who may be gay is driven from office for that very reason, because the ideology trumps abslolutely EVERYTHING else.
I felt the chill watching him, with the blinking and the tics and all. THAT was more Hitlerian than anything else I’ve seen of the carefully edited and scripted stuff that makes it out into the world.
Why should I care what a foreign country does to homosexuals?
So all of those Jews who continuously vote left are just self-hating? Is that it?
Are you equating disagreement with the policies and practices of Israel with anti-Semitism?
Isn’t it an old Arab proverb that ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend?’ Since the ULTIMATE enemy is Bush, Ahmadinejad and the American Left are supercozy. All other differences are irrelevant.
Guess that explains the low sales of Barbra Streisand CDs over there.
This doesn’t really make sense as you never see liberals supportive of Israel at all. Mention Palestininians and the liberals get all giddy with glee. Either I am out of touch or I don’t come into contact with liberal jews, which to me seems to be a paradox.
I didn't hear the word 'gay' come from Ahmadinejad ... he kept saying homosexual ... why the PC title for your post?
Can someone post the "Aw geez, not this sh*t again" picture in response to this post? TIA
PS Looks like we got some new trolls here. Sigh.
That’s pretty much the standard line from the left -
“we’re not anti-semitic*, we’re just anti-Zionist.”
*Another BS pedantic leftist rhetorical tactic is to say that Arabs are “semitic” as well.
The left wants to get people to believe “fundamental Christians-AKA THOSE That actually BELIEVE The Bible” are the same as “Fundamental Islam”..the’d better be glad they live in America where our laws (and founders were) Christians, a religion that is against much immorality, but also advocates “love thy neighbor”!..!
Hitler, 1945: “We don’t mistreat Jews in Germany. We don’t have any Jews in Germany.”
wow this topic deviated quickly, but just my two cents- on topic with the actual thread.
i may get flamed etc but i’ll just give you my perspective.
I lived for years in Toronto, Canada. Yes, many gay pride parades.
Now i’ve been on an extended vacation in Turkey for 1.5 years (yes extended) and to be 110% honest i haven’t seen a gay person yet. The nightlife is exceptional, the tourists come from all over but it’s always man/woman. boy/girl no matter where i am.
By now i know a lot of people around here and although i don’t ask, i’m sure one night drinking on a boat someone woulda said to me (if there were one) hey look, thats our gay guy.
The man had a point, in this region of the world everyone apparently seems to be straight. No pink, no men dressed in leather S&M crap.
I don’t know WHY, i’m just saying this is my fine observation. Could be of the early military recruiting, could be cuz its adam and eve not adam and steve.
No offense to any gay people on the list but i watched the news conference live also and when the audience laughed i didn’t because he’s right. You don’t see them if there are any. if they are around they are doing a damn good disguise job.
-hunter
By gay, he means men that dress up like women and sing in falsseto /sarc
My belief is that we have a very small segment, 1-2 percent of the population that is homoexual for whatever reason be it nature or nurture from a very young age.
I also bellieve we have a larger segment that is what I would call culturally gay. Gay by choice or conversion. Iran probably does not have that phenomenon.
The left wants to get people to believe “fundamental Christians-AKA THOSE That actually BELIEVE The Bible” are the same as “Fundamental Islam”..the’d better be glad they live in America where our laws (and founders were) Christians, a religion that is against much immorality, but also advocates “love thy neighbor”!..!
