Do Iranians support Bush?
I was just lurking over at Free Republic and saw this article "Majority of Iranians Favor Bush and Peace". I'm pretty sure that a lot of the younger part of the population doesn't favor their current government, but I can't imagine they support Bush? Freepers have reached a new level of insanity! One of their responses was "Gimme the Crayola box...I want to color Iran red."!

3. My best friend is Iranian
and she's a Bushie. Her father lives in Dubai and spends half his week in Tehran and he'd have voted for Bush too if he was a U. S. citizen.

I think it isn't about Bush, per se, it's about hating the mullahs and wanting regime change. They see Chimpus Khan as the one most likely to help effect change, and I am not in a position to argue with her or her dad about *this* aspect of it.

5. Ah, why don't the Iranians fight for themselves?
Bush has pretty well exhausted our kids.

7. Why don't you ask some Iranians?
The best case scenario is that they fight for their own freedom, but I have a very good idea of what answers you will hear if you ask Iranians themselves.

6. Bush doesn't do personal endangerment
As his mother said, why waste their beautiful minds on dead American kids. They don't want to look at www.icasualties.org

8. Why would they, though?
Didn't Condi just make some thinly veiled threats about us going in there?
