The BO taking GMC down was the equivalent of RR telling Russia to
"Take down this Wall"

"GMC Take down your walls " and with that ..capitalism as you know it died , soon we will have plastic cars from china running the same electric motor to drive.

Ask Al Gore

Ignorance is bliss ain't it holyone.
Uh, so did we keep Kiwait after kicking Saddam's butt ?
Why is the price of gasoline going up to over $3 a gallon ?
Oil is well below the $140 a barrel of when gas was pushed up to $4 a gallon.

I wouldn't know if ignorance is bliss, but you seem to. Saddam saw a necessary response in Kuwait as a coalition of forces, not just American, sought to remove him from is aggression. Oil is high, because it is a safe investment in a challenged economy, and the speculation on it and its byproducts like gasoline are helping to keep the market upbeat.

Also, if it was you that was lauding Reagan for saying such things to the USSR when Poland was rallying for freedom, remember well that is was Reagan that sold U.S. Arms to Iran; and consequently used the money to fund the war in Nicaragua. Had the truth really come out, Reagan would have been impeached.

Your ignorance is blithe. You get to play the merry fool.

Iranian Nobel Peace laureate Shirin Ebadi asked European Union officials in Brussels not to negotiate or hold meetings with Iranian leaders until the crackdown stops.

In Rome, Iranian filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf said he had been asked by Mousavi aides to spread the word on what is happening in Iran. Makhmalbaf said that even if Ahmadinejad manages to govern for the next four years, "he will not have one day of quietness," with protesters resorting to general strikes and civil resistance.
-----------------------------------------------------------

First, the article claims that Neda was killed by a fellow protester. But earlier, the regime not only claimed responsibility but was scum enough to bill her family for the bullet. Such people have no place in civilization.

Next, Ebadi's approach is excellent. There has to be other concrete ways for the world to demonstrate its digust with the regime other than poking holes in the sky.

Lenin said the West was filled with "useful idiots". Some of you aren't even useful. At least genuine Communists have ballz.

I'm sure you would be glad to help Ahmadinejad and his goon squad rush the US embassy.

If there is a lighter side to all of this, it is the fact that our President actually believes he can negotiate in good faith with these cretins.





Clarify please:

Are you referring to Iran, or "bipartisanship" with the republicans?

Ronald Reagan: "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall".

Barack Obama: "I don't want Mr. Ahmadinejad to not like me".






More like:

Barack Obama: "We do not want to give the regime the impression that America has anything to do with this revolution. This is an internal Iranian issue."

Ronald Reagan: "Hey Ayatollah Khomeini! Want to buy some weapons and ammo?"
