McCotter Floor Speech on Iranian Freedom Stressing American Support

[QueenZelma]

God bless Neda, her family and the rest of the protesters.

We're observing the level of moral clarity Obama possesses - or, rather, lacks.

How come I can't be free? Where are my human rights? I have no rights I have no freedom. Can I get on an airplane? No. Can I get on a train? No. Iranians have more rights than I do. Can I send a letter USPS to my congressman that will get read within 3 days? No. It takes 3 weeks. So now exactly where are my rights and my freedom? The fascists took them away.

Rep. McKotter. Will you please move to WV and run against Jay Rockefeller?

[salinagrrrl69]

He should run against Obama and his corrupt EMPIRE 2012.

human rights first

[sexlessparents]

r.i.p neda !!!

i feel so sad for here

[aaaaaaaaabbbbcccdddd]

What is "moral support" when people are being beaten and killed in the streets only because they speak out for freedom?

[healuv]

Does the US have the constitutional right to intervene on other foreign countries congressman McCotter? Are you a man of principle and law or are you a man who makes choices based on personal reason and emotions? I disagree with you on this issue. We should morally support the Iranians but should not get involved on a government level.

[Superboy316KING]

There is no such thing as "interference" when there's genocide taking place.

It is our responsibility and duty to prevent genocides everywhere in the world

[sybilll]

Demanding a stand on the issue of Human Rights is not getting involved in their government.

[Elcristoph]

just as a question, at what point should the free world get involved at a goverment level?

[salinagrrrl69]

I agree Morally support them. But There is nothing wrong with a Radio Free Iran is there? And Reagan Thatcher and the Pope support Polish Solidarity ...look where they are now.
