Formerly alive?

Sure they have... just ask your buddy Joey. It is a new day!

The Bush days are loooong gone and you need to get over it.

Iran has huge oil reserves, so yes the US would love to do what it is doing to Iraq: invade, destabilize and steal their oil.

Stealing oil? So funny.

Invade Iran. Too funny. Oh how I know that your kind ached for the US to invade Iran during the Bush years. You wanted an invasion more than Bush did! Bush didn't want to at all save in the minds of the whacko left. Oh the hundreds of threads that could have been created...all for naught.

You think Obama is going to invade Iran?

Absolutely!

We're coming to get you Clifford. Ooooo...Ooooo...

I don't know if it is Obama-Mania but I do like what I see. The youth of Iran standing up to a brutal dictatorship and I don't mean the Iranian Puppet President Amadinejad. He is just a ventriloquist dummy on the knee of the Revolutionary Council and Supreme Leader.

The protests are massive!

Good for them!

I just don't think the will to align with anything closer to the US would be happening if Bush was still there. Not giving Obama all the credit but he appears to have inspired change in more ways than one.

Yeah, I was beginning to think along the lines of your last sentence the minute after I posted.

It seems like Obama is staying pretty silent on this. He knows that if he starts siding with the opposition that the despots in charge will use that as a justification for more of the brutish violence that they are exhibiting now.

I just love seeing them squirm over there.

Good day to you Eagle, when we talk about democracy and the fact that people have spilled blood to achieve it, it is unfair to enjoy watching the blood bath FOR DEMOCRACY.
I am not sure on how you would achieve gratification on some one else’s misery, especially when the word democracy is meaningful to you.
I feel sorry for the millions of Iranians who believe in civilized REFORM AND YET ARE STOPED BY A GROUP OF THEOCRATIC MISSFITS.

Just ask me for the news on George Bush. He's doing quite well. He lives behind the fellow who owns the Dallas Stars. He and Laura have been to several neigborhood parties, and George threw out the first pitch at the Rangers game a few weeks ago. He was filmed playing baseball with a young boy on his street. Together, he and Laura are working on a massive library for the SMU campus.

Yadda Yadda Yadda...

Don't lecture me on how I should feel about democracy. We seem to be on the same side of this issue but if I find joy in seeing the Iranian Dictatorship squirm then it is joy that I feel.

Who are you to dictate to anyone how they should feel?
