The little dictator Sworn in

admin — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 08:22:31 +0000

With riot police out in force on the streets of Tehran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took the oath of office Wednesday and began a second term as Iran’s president.
Meanwhile more and more arrests and “confessions” are on the way as yesterday, Mir Hamid Hassanzadeh, who now is an advisor to the general manager of ISNA, was involved in Moussavi’s reformist presidential campaign and the candidate’s Web site, Ghalam News, has been arrested.

Red Carpet, By Mana Neyestani

Gibbs said yesterday that the white house will recognize Ahmadinejad as Iran’s president. He calls the clashes a “debate”, in What kind of debate people disappear and then turn up to be DEAD? Does Mr. Obama’s Change, mean he’ll get involved with a little dictator (knowing what he’s done to his people)?

Obama on Science and Evolution

Ali — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 07:59:50 +0000

A new Gallup Poll shows that only 39% of Americans say they “believe in the theory of evolution,” while a quarter say they do not believe in the theory, and another 36% don’t have an opinion either way. According to their work which is based on telephone interviews with 1,018 adults, believing in evolution has a strong relationship to educational level. I think there is not much to say. Fortunately President Obama does appreciate Darwin and Science. Listen and watch his views on Science and notes on Darwin’s Birthday:

President Obama’s challenge: the first 100 day’s

Ali — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 09:16:52 +0000

Finally we can call him president Obama. The first 100 days will not be easy for him as there are a lot of challenges on the way.
Amnesty international in a campaign called “100 days”, is asking Obama to meet the challenge and take concrete steps to counter terror with justice in his first 100 days in office. It seems that he is taking steps as he has stopped all the Guantanamo trials to review the tribunal process as one of his first official acts in the white house.

Palin-”Sarkozy” disscussion

Ali — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 11:05:01 +0000

Sarah Palin has become the victim of a prank phone call by a Canadian comedian posing as the French president.
While discussing a hunting trip together by a helicopter, the comedian said:

“I just love killing those animals. Mmm, mmm, take away life, that is so fun,”

Even after this exaggerated comment Sarah Palin didn’t recognized that this cannot be the french president until he introduced himself!
After telling the governer about the prank he finished by saying this sentence:

If one voice can change the world for Obama, a Viagra can change the world for McCain!

Listen to this hilarious prank call here.

Using Ahmadinejad to win votes!

Ali — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 18:27:34 +0000

It is interesting how McCain is trying to use Ahmadinejad’s unpopularity to win votes for him!

With a picture of Ahmadinejad and Obama the add says:

Is it OK to Unconditionally meet with Anti-American foreign leaders?
Select a leader with good judgment…

well then from his point of view a good judgment in this case is to sing “Lets Bomb Iran!”

Unmasking McCain*

Now that Hillary Clinton is out of the race Obama supporters are worried that some female supporters of Hillary will vote for McCain, so they are trying to show McCain’s views on some issues like Birth control and pro-choice. (*my title is from The Huffington Post)
