bush put a hard-liner in power in Iran
"Iranians do indeed know - and recognize - much about America, analysts here say. "The American people like this crazy man , because he says, 'I will defend and secure this nation,' " says Mr. Vaeidi. "Iranians are similar because they are willing to support any mad adventurer to keep their safety and security.""

This really struck me as I was reading this article. Iran thinks the US is going to invade. The people feared it and voted for the guy they think can protect them.

Call it another awakening.

2. Just like Osama put Bush back in office
with his oh so conveniently timed press release before our election in 2004.

What, you thought that it was a coincidence?
