Why is this video so low rated? I thought Mr. Pitney's question was entirely appropriate.

His question didn't imply that the United States should invade Iran or anything of the sort. He merely reminded President Obama that negotiating with the Iranian regime at this point would be a betrayal to the democratic protesters.

Sanctioning Iran would be an unfortunate setback to President Obama's efforts at regional peace, but the Iranian regime cannot be rewarded its shameless brutality.

Pitney denied giving Obama the question (which Obama didn't even answer).It isn't ignorance to not believe a conspiracy theory that has no proof to back it up. You believe in this conspiracy because you probably hate Obama and will believe any bad thing about him. But the fact is, in the modern world, we believe in evidence, which is something you do not have.

BTW, 25% of democrats are conservative.

BTW, Bush had a gay porn star planted in the press room to toss him softball questions.

NICO PITNEY is personally responsible for the death of many Iranians, he's an activist not a journalist, he's supposed to report the news not spread propaganda and make up the news. What a horrible man.

The Huffington post is the worse site to follow the news, it's another Drudge report, they have mullahs working as moderators, they should call them the censure police, they simply do not post your comments if they do not agree with the poster, what kind of crap is that.

A moderator supposed to check if there is anything that can make them liable and risk having a law suit, not a difference of opinion give the moderator the right to delete a post or simply remove the entire profile.

you mean , they pulled a Jeff Gannon? Johnny Glick? aka gayporndude, who was softballing the soft balls of a softballer and who many times wasn`t even registered as having left the white house some nights and who had unusual good access to the whole building?

You are a prime example of a growing problem in this country; ignorance. Attach a label to demonize an individual with the term Conservative, when they happen to be a registered Democrat, & a Thinking Democrat I know is a rarity in your world.

Sixletter stands by their statement; The Huffington Post 'reporter,' & I use the term loosely, did not give Obama the Iran question before hand?

If you believe that statement then I have a piece of ocean front property to sell you in Kansas.

what's up with conservatives thinking everything is a conspiracy all of a sudden? Obama isn't a secretive, lying bastard like bush was.
