Ahmadinejad compares Obama to Bush

TEHRAN (Reuters) - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad accused President Barack Obama of behaving like his predecessor on Iran and called on him to apologize for what he called U.S. interference following the Iranian elections.

EDITORS' NOTE: Reuters and other foreign media are subject to Iranian restrictions on their ability to report, film or take pictures in Tehran.

Obama has ramped up his previously muted criticism, saying he was "appalled and outraged" by a crackdown on protests which followed Ahmadinejad's disputed re-election.

"Mr Obama made a mistake to say those things ... our question is why he fell into this trap and said things that previously (former U.S. President George W.) Bush used to say," the semi-official Fars News Agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying.

About 20 people have been killed in the demonstrations, but police and militia have flooded Tehran's streets since Saturday, quelling the majority of protests after the most widespread anti-government unrest since the 1979 Islamic revolution.

The turmoil has dimmed prospects for Obama's outreach to Iran over its nuclear programme, with Tehran blaming Britain and the United States for fomenting violence.

"I hope you avoid interfering in Iran's affairs and express your regret in a way that the Iranian nation is informed of it," Ahmadinejad said.

1. Hah! Dead cinch proof that Ahmadinejad reads DU! That is so awesome.

:party: :woohoo: :party:

[jefferson_dem]

2. He does sound very much like some of our fellow DUers...

Perhaps Ahmadinejad himself and a few of his sockpuppets post here?

[Cha]

12. I saw that headline on my msn

homepage and similiar thoughts. It's a stupid thing to say and Ahmadinejad outs his fucking self.

[olegramps]

19. Ahmadinejad needs the Great Satan to maintain his power.

It is analogous to the Republicans needing abortion to to justify their existence. President Obama was astute in refusing to allow Ahmadinejad and his religious wackos to define the revolt as being instigated by the United States. Here again we see how the Republicans are willing to discredit their own nation in a desperate attempt to fault President Obama. They are more of a threat than any terrorist group since they are the enemy within and I don't believe that to be in the least an exaggeration.

[Clio the Leo]

3. At least he has a valid reason for doing this.....

.... he's not a Democrat.

[zulchzulu]

4. Obama compares Ahmadinejad to a worm-filled pile of chihauhau shit n/t

[BeyondGeography]

5. Proof that you've got nothing, Mahmoud

Are we supposed to be intimidated now? Fuck off and go back to being hated in your own country by most everyone with ambition under the age of 30.

[Jennicut]

17. Try under 35 or even under 40. I wonder who DOES support him over there?

Hard to tell with the fixed voting and polling.

[bdamomma]

22. what a sad little man he is, coward he is, not listening to the people.

little dictator.

[BlooInBloo]

6. Clearly he's a DUer.

[vaberella]

7. First thing that crossed my mind. Obama=Bush---Ahm is one of many DUers. n/t

[RandomThoughts]

8. If you are listening Ahmadinejad,

Almighty God loves all his children, even you. Don't turn your heart from his love, he will take you back, he will forgive you. We all have sins and Almighty God still loves us, and Almighty God still loves you even after all your sins.

Try to find his love, it is the freedom to feel the love of Almighty God and share it with all the brothers and sisters of the world.

Although I do not support your actions, nor the things you say. And I think your brutality is wrong, many people are brutal and then someday find their way back to Almighty God.

I can still give you a hug, because you are a person, and everyone is flawed. Please for your own peace of mind, turn to Almighty God for his gift of grace and mercy.

:hug: :loveya: :hug:

Return to the love of Almighty God you knew when you were just a little child.
Return to the light Ahmadinejad.

We belong, we belong to the light
Many times Ive tried to tell you
Many times Ive cried alone
Always Im surprised how well you
Cut my feelings to the bone

Don't want to leave you really
Ive invested too much time
To give you up that easy
To the doubts that complicate your mind

We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, we belong
We belong together

Maybe its a sign of weakness
When I don't know what to say
Maybe I just wouldn't know
What to do with my strength anyway
Have we become a habit
Do we distort the facts
Now there's no looking forward
Now there's no turning back
When you say

We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, we belong
We belong together

Close your eyes and try to sleep now
Close your eyes and try to dream
Clear your mind and do your best
To try and wash the palette clean
We cant begin to know it
How much we really care
I hear your voice inside me
I see your face everywhere
Still you say

We belong to the light
We belong to the thunder
We belong to the sound of the words
We've both fallen under
Whatever we deny or embrace
For worse or for better
We belong, we belong
We belong together

:hug: :hug: :hug:

16. Are you listening Ahmadinejad

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBqU8FOE0uk

Ive been lonely
Ive been waiting for you
Im pretending and thats all I can do
The love Im sending
Aint making it through to your heart
Youve been hiding, never letting it show
Always trying to keep it under control
You got it down and youre well
On the way to the top
But theres something that you forgot

What about love
Dont you want someone to care about you
What about love
Dont let it slip away
What about love
I only want to share it with you
You might need it someday

I cant tell you what youre feeling inside
I cant sell you what you dont want to buy
Somethings missing and you got to
Look back on your life
You know something here just aint right

What about love
Dont you want someone to care about you
What about love
Dont let it slip away
What about love
I only want to share it with you
What about love
Dont you want someone to care about you
What about love
Dont let it slip away
What about love
I only want to share it with you

Spare a little candle, save some light for me. Figures
Up ahead moving in the trees. White skin in linen,
Perfume on my wrist, and the full moon that hangs over
These dreams in the mist.

Darkness on the edge, Shadows where I stand
I search for the time on a watch with no hands,
I want to see you clearly, Come closer to this
come closer to this
But all I remember are the dreams in the mist

These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second
Of the night, I live another life. These dreams that
Sleep when it's cold outside, every moment I'm awake,
The further I'm away.

Is it cloak and dagger, could it be Spring or Fall?
I Walk without a cut through a stained-glass wall.
Weaker in my eyesight, a candle in my grip, and words
That have no form are falling from my lips.

These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second
Of the night, I live another life. These dreams that
Sleep when it's cold outside, every moment I'm awake,
The further I'm away.

There's something out there I can't resist. I need to
Hide away from the pain. There's something out there
I can't resist.

The sweetest song is silence that I've ever heard.
Funny how your feet in dreams never touch the Earth.
In a wood full of princes, freedom is a kiss. But the
Prince hides his face from dreams in the mist.

These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second
Of the night, I live another life. These dreams that
Sleep when it's cold outside, every moment I'm awake,
The further I'm away.

These dreams go on when I close my eyes. Every second
Of the night, I live another life. These dreams that
Sleep when it's cold outside, every moment I'm awake,
The further I'm away.

15. Did anyone see Reza Aslan on Jon Stewart's

last night? He said "Thank God for President Obama!".. It said he was a contributor to the daily beast and his book is "How to Win the Cosmic War". He was wearing a green arm band when he said "Obama handled it perfectly"..so who am I gonna go with?

[ericgtr]

18. I caught that, great interview!

The audience broke out in applause too. It almost seemed like Stewart went out of his way to hit Obama in his opening segment for some reason too.
