But, but, but our Supreme Leader, General Obama went to the Mid East to bring change and hope! You mean it didn’t work? Bummer.

Not likely.

Remember the recent Europe-wide riots when a Greek teenager was shot dead by police. Every big city across Western Europe had several weeks worth of demonstrations.

You won't hear a squeak from the anarchic European left about this Islamic dictator's vote fraud and murders of the protesters.

Why is that?

Explains why John McCain has been so quiet and compliant.

I cannot see this ending well for Democracy in Iran, sadly. If Reagan were President a few containers of Tommy guns and Mills bombs would have found their way to Tehran to help out with the regime change.

I fear there shall be reports of construction crane shortages in Iran over the next few weeks.

They are probably closely watching the techniques being used to shut down the protests for future reference. Maybe they are even giving advice.

The Mullahs have now completely lost their legitimacy. The only way they can try to save themselves is by wagging the dog. Look for war as soon as they can start one.

This is what Hussein and his communist komrades has in store for the GOP in 2010.

They have launched the heaviest propaganda and psychological war against the American nation. Many global networks continuously worked, employing very complicated methods, that work against our nation and arranged a full-fledged battle against us."

Mousavi warned “people won’t respect those who take power through fraud.”

______________
The Kenyan needs to keep that in mind

"...I'm warning that I won't surrender to this manipulation..." said a statement on Mousavi's Web site.

Mousavi didn't learn from Sadek Ghotbzedeh's example. Ghotbzedeh was beheaded for his attempt at Westernizing Iran.

He was Iran's greatest hope, though I can't recall if it was during Carter's first term or not.

(And Ghotbzedeh/Ghotbzadeh being very-nearly invisible at Google).

He was executed and was accused of homosexual molesting boys. True or untrue that is how I remember it

This is the ‘vigorous debate’ that Premier Obama is so excited about. So happy in fact, that he intends to follow the same course of action for his subjects very very soon.

Don’t forget the failed Nojeh Coup 1980, by Imperial Iranian Officers to kill and topple the mullahs.

He probably doesn't support him.

That's the charge that should be brought against all the mullahs. It isn't even a false charge.

“I cannot see this ending well for democracy in Iran”

With 0’s tacit approval of mideast abominations of all sorts, this should come as no surprise. I am more saddened that this will not end well for democracy in the US. 0 waves his magic wand to make any opponents disappear as well— like the Inspector General who tried to expose one of his big donors who had bilked the taxpayers out of hundred’s of thousnads of dollars.

can’t wait to hear what TOTUS has to say about this. In truth, he’s probably envious of the iron-fisted control ...
