Again, Chi, you fail to see the difference between MEDDLING and declaring an OPINION.
Jesus Christ! You loopy broad. Look up the definition.

RO- Example: When people, let's say a mother-in-law, is constantly giving her negative "opinions" to her daughter about you and how to handle you, she is meddling in your marriage is she not?
For your sake, RO:
Main Entry: med?dle
Pronunciation: \ˈme-dəl\
Function: intransitive verb
Inflected Form(s): med?dled; med?dling \ˈmed-liŋ, ˈme-dəl-iŋ\
Etymology: Middle English medlen, from Anglo-French mesler, medler, from Vulgar Latin misculare, from Latin miscēre to mix ? more at mix
Date: 14th century
: to interest oneself in what is not one's concern : interfere without right or propriety
Main Entry: opin?ion
Pronunciation: \ə-ˈpin-yən\
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin opinion-, opinio, from opinari
Date: 14th century
1 a: a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter b: approval, esteem
2 a: belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge b: a generally held view
3 a: a formal expression of judgment or advice by an expert b: the formal expression (as by a judge, court, or referee) of the legal reasons and principles upon which a legal decision is based
Opinion and meddling can go hand in hand, in some situations, sweety. In this case, you are walking that fine line.

It is only meddling if the daughter acts upon the opinions of the mother.
Opinion becomes meddling when said opinions are expressed with action.

BS, RO! Meddling is sticking your nose in affairs that are none of your business. How Iran votes & fixes elections is none of our business. We don't have to follow with actions to not mind our own business. Take a look at the definition again, Mr. You don't know what it means, there is nothing there about the requirement of taking any physical action.

Unless the mother-in-law steps in and declares herself opposed to the union I have with her daughter, then she has done nothing more than state and opinion to her daughter.
In the definition of MEDDLE, I noticed the word INTERFERE.

Maybe I should send Obama a dictionary to show him that he can cast an opinion, with certainty, without meddling in the business of a sovereign nation.grasping...

Funniest part of this is that the White House and Chi fell for the same trick that the White House, the media and the left use against any criticism of Obama.
Giving an opinion is as much "meddling" as criticizing Obama and/or his policies is, "racism" but just claiming it is they were hoping the Obama administration would backpeddle and feel the need to explain how they weren't meddleing and hoping some blind fool watching would think they were meddleing, just like they do when they claim racism.
Iran used the White House and left's own tactic against them and just got one over on the White House and tripped them up with the foreign relations policy equivalent of a fricking Bugs Bunny trick.

Iran accused the United States of "intolerable" meddling in its internal affairs in regards to its recent "election." Meddling? Obama hasn't said squat! Sarkozy has been left to carry the ball on this one.

Funny thing is, he didn't have a problem telling them Jews in Israel that they couldn't continue to make settlements in their own country.

I wonder if there ain't a touch of Rev. Wright in Obama after all.

Are you really this much of a dullard, Chi, or do you have to work on it?
If I am INTERESTED in cars and have an OPINION on a particular car's engine, doesn't mean I am going to MEDDLE with the vehicle. I might not even own one, in fact I might not even know where I could find said vehicle.

Now Jeremiah is expressiong an OPINION. Correct.
Chi... is this an opinion?
And this is an opinion, right?
Does this make you a meddler?

If a husband and wife were arguing across the street, would you go over and voice support over which one you think is right without them asking your opinion?
And why is it, your all for Government staying out of OUR business, yet, can turn around and want that same Government to stick it's nose in someone else's.

Right. That's none of my affair, but I can certainly formulate my own opinion and voice to whomever I so desire. I don't have to meddle in their business to carry an opinion on their argument.
It's a simple fukken opinion, Bender. Not physical, authoritative, or suggestive interference in the affairs of a sovereign country. Voicing a concern or a stance is not meddling.
Obama can't express his opinion to his constituency?
I certainly consider it meddling when my mother-in-law lectures me over how I decide to dicipline my kids, especially when our opinions on how things should be handled differ.
I definitely consider it meddling when she tells me I need to see a shrink because I can look at my marriage and see the reality that exists within it, while she has none of the inside information to know what has made it the way it is.
And I most DEFINITELY consider it meddling when she can't/won't follow any of her own "helpful" advice.
I think the same can be said for our president offering his opinion on things that aren't his concern at the moment. When and if they become his concern by threatening our national security, then he can and should speak up. publically. In the meantime, he should let them take care of their business and focus on taking care of his own; same as my mother-in-law should do, but won't.
