The GOP has operated a border-line theocratic ideology since Reagan got in bed with the moral majority. Thank GOD the American people finally figured this out last year. It's just a shame the American people didn't have the courage to demonstrate like the Iranis after the stolen elections in 2000 and 2004!

Funny that you should mention Reagan. Mousavi became prime minister the same year that Reagan took office, and was the prime minister throughout the Iran-Contra years. Manuchehr Ghorbanifar, the Iranian arms dealer who brokered the Iran-Contra deal, was a bosom-buddy of Mousavi's.

Maybe, just maybe, Mousavi lost not because of massive vote fraud but simply because the Iranians had him made as a sock-puppet for US interests. D'ya think? -

So, a question for the liberals on the thread who are cheerleading for all of this-
Reply
Did you also believe that the 2000 US Presidential election was "stolen?"
If so, why didn't you grab a gun and try to take out a police station or a US military installation? Certainly you approve of Moussavi's supporters doing this. Do you regret not assaulting the police and military in 2000, and will you make a firm committment to do so next time you claim a US election has been "stolen?"
Sauce for the goose, and all that.-

I stand with the Iranian people for their right to an honest election, as I also stood with the American people. I will never support the side of any totalitarian or theocratic regime. The 1st Bush term was an appointment...legal? I'm not convinced. Ethical? No. But I'm not sure enough of the legal aspect to commit violence which is the very last resort, not the first. I don't doubt we would be a much better nation without having had the Cheney terms, But I am also sure that the extreme evidence of the results of that admn. have forced people to re evaluate what these parties really stand for. For that I thank the neocon faction of the party sort of.

That as long as the memory of the Bush presidency remains in the synopses of the american consciousness there will be very little credibility given to anything the republican party has to offer unless they completely reject those responsible, sincerely apologize for being wrong and leading the nation down the primrose path of unsustainable idiocy, and offer some real solutions to the ills they created. -

Nope.
If Bush had won 90% of the electoral vote nationwide, yes, I would have thought the election stolen. As it was, I believe FL could have gone either way and Bush wanted it more while Gore dropped the ball. When SCOTUS made it's ruling, Bush was my President no matter how much I didn't like the outcome.
You know some folks say the 2008 election was stolen, since some have the crazy belief that Obama isn't an American. Are you suggesting those folks should rise up? -

NB, I hate to tell you this, but you're arguing like a republican.

Our failure to rise up in 2000 has nothing to do with this issue. Besides which, the Iranian people aren't picking up guns and attacking police stations. They are very sensibly staging mass demonstrations and engaging in a general strike. Much better tactics, if you ask me.

Alas, I fear that the people's will is the last thing the mullahs are concerned with.

Or, rather, they are to the degree that they must placate/mollify to prevent protracted interruption of their planned outcome.
Look for token "investigations" of the voting, all circumscribed by the ultimate objective of keeping theocratic rulers ruling. -

Cell phone pix coming out of Iran.
Still many reports of web shutdowns and cell service blackouts yet much is still getting out.
Though I just got a message from a student I know in Tehran saying "They're cutting off all connections now, Google Talk, Yahoo Messenger, Twitter". -

The revolution may not be televised. But it seems to be web-casted and twittered to some degree.
