The Ahmadinejad Hypocrisy
All this disdain and objection to Mr. Ahmadinejad is media manufactured, white house manipulated, war with Iran mongering HOGWASH.

I see CNN "reporting" on how Ahmadinejad got a "good dose of free speech" at Columbia University today. He is a brutal dictator who condones death for homosexuals and oppresses women!

That's all true of course. But...

ALLOW ME TO POST THE FOLLOWING PHOTOGRAPHS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

Spare me, mainstream media.

1. No shit. Do you ever wonder if they are ever ashamed of the lies that
they tell? And then you stop and realize that you would have to have a conscience and a 'soul' to be ashamed.

2. Not all true, of course.
Ahmadinejad is not a dictator at all.

The president is not even the top position in Iran.

He's more like the Iranian equivalent of Condi.

Guess which country I am talking about.

6. The one where bankers in a temple issue the holy writ?
Where idolatry prevails?

The country where corporate economists write the laws that Congress is supposed to pass years in advance, and corporate media discover the need for these laws just in time to help drum them through?

Oh, sorry, I guess you mean hierophants of the Abrahamic god, not Mammon.

7. my one and only reaction to the incredible hypocrisy show today was ...
Edited on Mon Sep-24-07 03:13 PM by flordehinojos
why the blazes aren't they asking GWB some of the very same tought questions? And, would Bush take it standing up like a man, like Ahmadinejad did, or would he storm off the stage but not before insulting one or two people in his wake?

Oh yeah, we are powerful okay,but when it comes to truth out, we really need to begin with our own liar-in-chief.

9. Bush would purse his lips
and start stammering and waving his hands and shrugging and all those other silly childish things he does.

Ahmadinejad is a real man, and probably was expecting to be booed. Bush can't deal with that, in fact all his speeches are pre-screened so he can't be booed.
