Not a word from president pantywaist about this or the terrorist trying to blow up an aircraft. He’s busy enjoying a holiday. The man is a disgrace.
Reaganite Republican commented:
Once again, in a situation that calls for the true voice of world leadership, we have the Bolshevik Boy Wonder out on the links… pathetic.
Did this self-absorbed twit learn nothing from Jimmy Carter’s misguided accommodation with this vile, apocalyptic regime?
Nor from Ronald Reagan’s brave and principled support of Solidarity in Poland… thus freeing millions?
gus commented:
Obama isn’t bright enough to know what to do.
He also didn’t hire anyone who is capable.
This is what happens when you vote for incompetent fuk ups.
Scott commented:
I “blame” George Bush in part for the nascent Iranian revolution (and I think that’s what it should be called now. I don’t think this can be called mere protests any longer).
Here’s why. The Iranian Shia see how thier Iraqi Shia brothers are experiencing freedom and the opportunity to self-govern through democracy and they want it too.
It’s a crying shame we don’t have a president strongly and publicly supporting the revolutionaries.
Toaster 802 commented:
Look! it is Washington, NY, LA, Chicago,Detroit,Atlanta, Ad Nausum…
It is coming to a city near you kids. Keep watching football and trusting demo-rats. Then when the cattle car shows up, please board quietly. You will have to stay in your seat for the final hour and nothing will be allowed in your lap…
I hope I am wrong, but I would not bet against it…
greenfairie commented:
The Iranian 9-12 Project continues.
UncleZeb commented:
I was thinking the same thing Toaster 802. Is this a preview of coming attractions if our regime continues down its current path?
Patriot Act commented:
Isn’t there a way that the US can smuggle some weapons in to these poor heroic souls?
Oh wait, that might require a command-in-chief who isn’t an abject terrorist-sympathizing pu$$y.
avery commented:
They must have Gun control in Iran.It coming to U.S.A.
dj commented:
It’s only a matter of time. The bigger question is when a new administration takes over in Iran, and it will, what will they think about the U.S. response to all this? Will they throw the middle finger at us? Will they welcome us? All they asked for was for some symbolic support and we failed…sorry…Obama failed. “We” the people of the United States didn’t fail. If you remember when this all started both left and right were for the revolutionaries, but the administration failed to set an accord and failed to do the right thing just as it is failing to do the right thing with this latest terrorist incident. Our president sad to say is a lame duck as our nation and the world is slowly learning that he isn’t the “leader” that we wanted him to be.

EXACTLY.
EITHER HE SUPPORTS THE MULLAHCRACY OR HE’S A COWARD.
I KNOW: BOTH!

“And the Obamessiah Played Golf”:
Huge pro-democracy protests break out in Iran.
Human rights activists say, “Tehran in fire and blood.”
Protesters corner police, hurl rocks, and torch police station and cars.
Others chase regime thugs and beat them in streets.
Police fire on protesters, killing opposition leader’s nephew.
Protesters trample street sign bearing Khamenei’s name.
Others chant “Khamenei will be toppled!”, “Down with the dictator!”
Protests resemble those that toppled the Shah.
And the Obamessiah played golf.

I’m sure President Pantywaist will be briefed, between the 6th and 7th hole.

President B+ must rest from his grueling schedule of golfing and partying and flying his entourage around the world on the taxpayers dime. It is so exhausting being President B+.

Kerry of Tehran
His trip would convey legitimacy that the dictatorship
is especially eager to have at the current moment.
[John Kerry lost the Secretary of State sweepstakes to Hillary Clinton,
but that hasn't lowered his diplomatic ambitions. The Journal reported Thursday that the Senate Foreign Relations Chairman is mulling a trip
to Iran, and with the blessing of the Obama Administration.
If the mullahs had any sense, they'd send him a government plane. Beset by almost daily demonstrations by a democratic opposition that has been growing despite beatings and arrests since the stolen June election, Mr. Kerry would arrive from Washington to show the Iranian people that at least someone still favors the regime. He would be the most senior American to visit Tehran in 30 years and his trip would convey legitimacy that the dictatorship is especially eager to have at the current moment.
The Kerry mission would also look like a panicky effort to persuade the Ayatollah Ali Khamanei to accept the increasingly plaintive U.S. offers
of engagement. Mr. Obama has set the end of this month as his latest deadline for progress on nuclear talks before he says he'll seek tougher sanctions against Iran at the U.N.
But if a year of personal Presidential letters and Administration entreaties hasn't worked, why would a Senatorial trip? The regime would probably exploit the visit for its own domestic purposes, perhaps adding to its P.R. coup by releasing to Mr. Kerry the three hapless American hikers it has promised to put on trial for having "suspicious aims" as they wandered across the border with Iraq.
The Iranians who need support now are the democrats in prison, in the streets, and increasingly in the mosques as the regime loses its legitimacy even among many clerics. Please do them no more harm, Senator.]

I’m proud of the Iranians for being persistent against the odds. They must be truy p*ssed.

From my website:
Gateway always runs some good links and video. Here we have video of streets full of protesters attacking police stations and the like. Why? Because the Iranian professional military sent a letter stating that they had about had it with the shootings and beating of unarmed citizens, including women. Here’s a Mao moment for the Iranian leaders- Those who have the guns have the power.
You can thank GWB for this. For all the criticism he took for invading Iraq, it took only a glance at a world map to understand the geo-political strategy behind the invasion. We have now pinched a not so strong regime which is holding their people hostage between two armies. Our armies. We have stayed the course in Iraq and shown the well educated but oppressed people of Iran what it looked like to be really free. Yes, I understand Iraq is full of corruption, but so is Iran. The difference is that in Iraq, they can stop the corruption tomorrow and demand change, something the Iranians cannot do, yet. Further, the Iranians know their leaders are nutjobs. They know they are being punished because they had the misfortune to be born in Iran. The key is that they KNOW what is just beyond the border; the freedom, the opportunity, the hope.
The Iranian military is the key. If they stay on the sidelines the government will be forced to make significant changes. If the military decides to jump in on the side of the people, it will be mullahs running for the door like rats jumping off a sinking ship. I’m no expert in theocracies but I don’t see any outside the Middle East having a long shelf-life, especially in a nation filled with educated men and women. They realize, as did our founding fathers and the people in the French Revolution, that a government dominated by a religion politically is fraught with danger. The problem with God being in charge is that it isn’t really God, but men acting like gods. We all know how that works out.
Hopefully, if the Iranians do bring down their government they will have learned from that same French Revolution and Maoist China and Russia, that just because you destroy the old regime doesn’t mean you have to replace it with chaos and anarchy. The transition should begin immediately to a free citizen based government founded in laws and the rights of man. Hey, I have an idea. Somebody e-mail the Constitution to them. With Obama around, we aren’t using it much right now anyhow. Just make sure we send along a warning.
“This works well, if you remain vigilant and true to its message.” “PS, no lawyers or Harvard grads should qualify as President. Oh, and put in term limits.”
Just saying…

Who cares about Iran or man-made disasters? I’m breathless for more information about the Obama family’s Hawaiian vacation! Give me photos! Mmm Mmm Mmm!!
Sickofobama commented:
What can we Americans do to help?
Obama doesn’t care about the protesters here – just like he doesn’t care about the protesters in Iran.
Obama is allowing the little Hitler to murder innocent people who want their freedom.
Don’t think it can’t happen here.
jainphx commented:
And the 52% expected what exactly? I know this was what I, and almost everybody here expected. This guy still hasn’t conjured up the nerve to say a few words about Detroit, and the terror try. Who thinks he has the nerve to say ANYTHING about the brave souls in the streets of Iran?
Buffalobob commented:
Obama question of the day. Should I use a six or a seven iron?
Shirin commented:
Thank you so much for your supports. I think as an Iranain, we don’t need Obama’s support! We wish all countries put their steps out from our country, like what Obama did!
Also, I am thankful of him that lets at least American know that we are not foil people.
I remember the first days when I came to U.S, most of the American were brain washed. They thought we were very silly, uncivilized and terrorist.
Still, I remember all those question that people were asking me
But, these days I feel they are going to be familiar with our history and culture. Which is a great help for us.
Thanks!

oh btw Shirin @ 10:49 pm #28,
you remember Bush don’t you??
one of many example’s:
Bush’s Message to the Iranian People
[ I would say to the Iranian people: We respect your history. We respect your culture. We admire the entrepreneurial skills of your people. I would say to the Iranian people that I recognize the importance of your sovereignty; that you're a proud nation, and you want to have a positive future for your citizens.
In terms of the nuclear issue, I understand that you believe it is in your interest--your sovereign interest, and your sovereign right--to have nuclear power. I understand that. But I would also say to the Iranian people there are deep concerns about the intentions of some in your government who would use knowledge gained from a civilian nuclear power industry to develop a weapon that can then fulfill the stated objectives of some of the leadership. And I would say to the Iranian people that I would want to work for a solution to meeting your rightful desires to have civilian nuclear power--and that solution would be something I propose for other nations, and not just Iran. And that is that those of us who have the capacity to enrich uranium would provide that enriched material, so that you could have a civilian nuclear power industry. And we would collect that, and help dispose of that, the waste of that material.
And I would assure the Iranian people that I gave a speech in Washington that wasn't aimed at Iran, per se--it was part of a solution as to how do we encourage the spread of civilian nuclear power as a way to diversify away from hydrocarbons, and at the same time be good stewards of the environment. A lot of my talk in the speech was directed toward developing nations that burn coal in such a way that it creates an environmental hazard.
And I would assure the Iranian people that the objective was global in nature, and that this would be a solution that would answer a deep desire from the Iranian people to develop a civilian nuclear power industry.
I would tell the Iranian people that we have no desire for conflict. On the other hand, I would remind people that democracies yield the best hope for people. And that while America never dictates what form of democracy, we believe in the values inherent in democracy--and that is the freedom for people to worship, for public dissent - and that it troubles us when we see young democracies challenged by elements of government and/or surrogates for government.
And I would be very frank with the Iranian people and make it clear that the Hezbollah attacks on Israel were an unnecessary provocation and in my judgment an attempt to undermine, on the one hand, a Lebanese democracy and on the other the development of a Palestinian democracy.
And I would say to the Iranian people: I would hope that you would encourage the development of free societies, based upon the traditions and history of each particular country. And that it's in your interest that democracies exist on your borders.]

Iranians Ask Obama for Help, Obama
Sides with Khamenei and Ahmadinejad
[On the very same day that an Iranian student told CNN he wants the international community to condemn the Mullahs in charge of his country, and to stop doing business with them in any way whatsoever, the White House said Iranian functionaries are welcome to celebrate the July 4th celebrations with them.
Utterly unbelievable.
Can you imagine celebrating a revolution that brought liberty, justice, and freedom to Americans with representatives of a regime that is currently fighting against its own people in an attempt to hold on to power? It’s insane. This would have been impossible under every single president… except for Obama.]
but hey, you’re happy with Obama, then i’m
happy for you.. i wish all Iranians happiness..
unfortunately, we’re not happy he’s taking
US in Irans (for one) dictatorship direction..

Shirin commented:
FYI, I don’t like our governors ( Ahmadinejad, khameneii,…) & I am fighting with them. And I know it is so dangerous for the world if they have unclear bombs.
And also, I am not a fan of the Obama. It is not in my business who is US president.
Moreover, I know we need help of people of all over the world to get ride of those … governors.
But, we don’t need any help from politicians of other countries! Most of the politicians think about our oil not about our people, unfortunately
I wish we didn’t have any oil in our country!
