President Obama: We Shouldn't Be Seen as Meddling in Iranian Elections

June 16, 2009 It doesn't look the Republicans who want Obama to condemn Iran are going to get their wish: the president told reporters today that "it's not productive given this history of US-Iranian relations" to be seen as "meddling in Iranian elections."

That's a good policy...stay the hell out of Iran's affairs. That's how all the BS got started in the first place...US and Britain screwing with Iran's democracy.

Look who's talking! What happened to your comment?

Believe what you want, but I do make $300,000 to $500,000 a year. Enough said.

based on the lack of eloquence from your last response- (which I noticed has been removed) I seriously doubt you net more than $ 30,000 a year. Someone who makes the salary you state- typically doesn't speak as you did.

Oh you want to talk about welfare? Alright, I own an offshore engineering company in Gakveston, Texas. My salary is $300,000 to $500,000. How the hell am I a welfare sucking piece of trash. I simply believe that there are people out there that physically / mentally cannot get a job. So should we really cut welfare just because there are a few flaws and let the ones who need it suffer? It's like in school, if 1 person is loud in class, does everyone have to get detention? NO!

President Obama is sounding like President Woodrow Wilson.

This is not a US problem. In the past Iran elected their own government. The people must ensure that the government fufills the will of the people. Usually societies are content or do not stop the governments continuing in the wrong course That is when the promblem gets worse. It cannot change in a week but must be a slow change in society. Humanity cannot cope with large shifts in ways of life. It's just a historical fact. I praise the Iranian people wanting change, but this is your battle.
