The Iranian election: Barack Obama’s cowardly silence : Nile Gardiner.
Yes, you can hear the crickets.
The Obama administration’s response to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s fraudulent election victory is cowardly, lily-livered and wrong. The White House’s refusal to officially question the result or even condemn the brutal suppression of opposition protestors, is undermining America’s standing as a global power, and is little more than a face-saving, cynical exercise in appeasement that will all end in tears.

That’s a laugh…tea parties are unhealthy. For who? For Zero and his band of merry thieves who must put up with questions from those that they take from?

The phone keeps ringing at all hours, and no one is answering. Apparently, the executive branch and the State dept. are voting “present” on this one.

“PRESENT” loud and clear. I hope those kids who live in Iran and helped get this cretin into office now understand what fraud is all about. Sad to say that I wish no one the hardship that is about to befall them.
