Do be aware of misinformation on the #Iranelection twazzup. Read w/ a grain of salt.

That's the same argument made against the Internet by the MSM. We know how to screen out the crap by now.

I am beginning to wonder if Hillary might be just the one to start the inter-party revolution. We don’t have the numbers on our side, but if the Clinton machine can break the party in two, Obama will no longer have the house on his side.

Do you think that the Moussavi supporters want to get rid of the mullahs? I thought they wanted to keep the Islamic Republic, and just get their man into the office of President. Khamenei would have to either accept the democratic vote, or get out the Council.

But they are not looking to get rid of the mullahs.

Nothing good can come from the Clinton machine - they're the people who "troll" conservative web sites. Letting them out and it's a whirlwind.

It's more than that.

This was part of the overall strategy of Pres. Bush's WOT. Democratize Iraq. Isolate Syria. Encourage the Iranian's to overthrow the Mullahcracy.

Pres. Bush handed Obammie the Commie a golden opportunity to free an entire nation (well, to assist, anyway) without firing a shot.

But Obammie the Commie's ideology is going to completely blow it. A free Iraq may actually help the world's petroleum flow. Obammie the Commie wants the oil flow choked off so he can force Marxism on America, in part, through the "energy revolution".

What a fool. What a narcissistic, commie fool.

From Michael Ledeen last night at Pajamas Media...

Finally, almost everyone has missed one of the most remarkable themes of the Khamenei sermon, namely the attack on the Clintons. I’ll give it to you in full, because there is really no way to summarize it without depriving you of the full flavor. He was upset at American accusations of human rights violations in Iran:

Even inside the U.S., one is amazed, during the time of the administration of these very Democrats, the Democratic Party in America, the time of the presidency of the husband of this so-called “lady” who expresses her opinions, 80, 80 something people who were a part of the Davudi sect, were burnt alive; there’s no room for denying this. These “excellencies” did this deed; it was these very Democrats…the Davudi sect which they themselves call BRANCH DAVIDIANS. For some unknown reason, these people incurred the wrath of American and inside a house…they went over there and besieged the place and whatever they did, they didn’t come out and so they ended up setting the house on fire and 80 something men, women and children burned alive! You think you know something about human rights?!

More...here...

Exactly!

President Bush set up the ‘football’ for Obama and now Obama has fumbled the ball for a turn-over at the end zone. And i agree..it’s not about Obama being ‘green’ or ‘naive’...it’s his ideology to be against America’s interests.

Obama doesn't want to upset the Russians. Ahmadinejad is their guy (and Chavez's).
