...Bush set all this up on a silver platter for Obama and Obama is blowing it big time. Iran sees democracy in Iraq and Afghanistan and they want the same.

Bush and a lot of brave men and women in uniform. W's a decent fellow, and he shed real tears, but they shed blood. Now, instead of a leader, we have an overgrown child frolicking in the White House, globetrotting, and throwing parties, while the ground that our troops paid dearly for is abandoned to forces of evil.

“... he is blowing it!!”

Perhaps that’s the plan.

A probable “Reichstag Fire” provocation to justify the bloodshed that is now happening.

Unfortunately sir, you are correct. They will now kill by the 100s if not 1000s, and with the blessing of our president.

I never thought I would miss Bill Clinton!

I’ve been thinking recently that the two probably have a lot in common.

“Exactly WHAT would you have a POTUS do?”

Well for one....his damn job! It is in America’s national security interests that he shows support for these protestors with something stronger than ‘I’m deeply concerned’. When the abortion doctor was killed, Obama was ‘outraged’...yet when the mullahs are sending out militant goons to kill Iranians in the streets..he is mildly ‘concerned’. In fact...it took several days for him to even say that!

These protests have evolved from being about an election to being about FREEDOM and if America can’t stand for freedom anymore, then we have truly lost our way as a country.

Bingo!

If not that, it is similar to the Tiananmen Square incident of a student throwing something on the giant portrait of Mao. It put the students in a bad light and helped provoke a govetrnment response.

He's hoping the Iranian government will put an end to this over the weekend so he won't have to deal with it next week.

Someone on twitter just posted this:

“President Obama, please wear a green tie this week in support of the Iranian people”

Yeah I’m sure he’ll get right on that. /s
