ImWithStupid Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 All I know, is I'm doing my part to help the Iranians. I am using some of the Suckage's bandwidth in Canada to give Iranian's proxy networks to post to twitter on. I have unlimited bandwidth on that site, so I can sustain tons of accounts without slowing down. Tweet hashes are tiny. . . Keep up the good fight, Brother!!!! Quote
Ahhlee Posted June 21, 2009 Posted June 21, 2009 To quote Jack Nicholson's character from "As Good As It Gets", when asked how he writes women so well: "I think of man... and I take away reason and accountability." I agree. It should have been, logic and reason. I'm of the OPINION that you're both a couple of knuckleheads. Quote

RoyalOrleans Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 President Obama finally decided to issue a statement over the weekend about the fake election and subsequent repression of protestors in Iran. Here's what the President had to say... The Iranian government must understand that the world is watching. We mourn each and every innocent life that is lost. We call on the Iranian government to stop all violent and unjust actions against its own people. The universal rights to assembly and free speech must be respected, and the United States stands with all who seek to exercise those rights. As I said in Cairo, suppressing ideas never succeeds in making them go away. The Iranian people will ultimately judge the actions of their own government. If the Iranian government seeks the respect of the international community, it must respect the dignity of its own people and govern through consent, not coercion. Martin Luther King once said - "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." I believe that. The international community believes that. And right now, we are bearing witness to the Iranian peoples' belief in that truth, and we will continue to bear witness. Not that Obama's words are going to make a difference (Iran is going to do what Iran is going to do.) ... but at least the world knows where the United States stands ...... sort of.. Straight from the horse's mouth: is this meddling or is this an opinion? Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.

Yea, but if Obama's pastor had said it, the statement would have made many more references to the Hymies, Kikes and Hebes that are to blame for all the ills of the world, especially the Middle East.

Straight from the horse's mouth: is this meddling or is this an opinion? Statement of opinion I would say, probably taken as meddling to the corrupt people in government in Iran. It's justifiable for Obama to say something now after all that has transpired. He's still not accusatory saying that they rigged the election because he has no proof of that. But he does have proof on the bad way they are handling the situation and protests. It also involves the US now because a lot of Iranian-Americans are protesting here. Quote

You can thank Carter for the corrupt Iranian government officials thinking that the US is meddling in their affairs. It's justifiable for Obama to say something now after all that has transpired. He's still not accusatory saying that they rigged the election because he has no proof of that. But he does have proof on the bad way they are handling the situation and protests. It also involves the US now because a lot of Iranian-Americans are protesting here. And I commend him for voicing his opinion on the matter... sort of...

timesjoke Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 I give Obama some credit for showing some support for these people in Iran but I can't get past his need to wait for the opinion polls to come out before he takes a stand on an important issue. Sometimes leadership is not popular. People being shot in the street for daring to question the election seems to me an easy call on the human side of the issue even if he wanted to keep his distance on the political side. I have said all along that Iran will never behave, Obama was called nieve by his own vice-President and his Secretary of State while he was running for office, maybe they were onto something? Quote

Do you think it is slightly telling when all of them 'BEAT' us to speak against human rights problems? Leadership is stepping up and getting behind the right thing, if someone has to tell you what the right thing is or if to you the only right thing is whatever is popular, then to me that shows a severe lack of leadership.........but that is just me.
