Is Obama's rhetorical support of the Iranian people enough? Poll

I don't watch TV either, but my experience of TV "news" from a long time ago says that the public here is getting little to no information on the situation in Iran.

As I tried to indicate earlier, we can't lay down a single path forward and walk it through. We're going to have to feel our way along.

At this point there is little we or our country can do but to lodge protests against what is going on there. The most we can do autonomously is to support the radio and television broadcasts into Iran -- not cut support for them, as I have heard in recent years. We need to let the people know that we know what is going on, and that we are watching (and waiting) in support.

Think Reagan and those ruled by the Soviets.

The People of Iran are speaking with their lives in the streets and it seems nobody is hearing their cries. I am grieved beyond words..... I hope the White House is monitoring this tread. I would like to talk with the President in person about this. Perhaps then something might change.

It truly pains me to tell you that talking to the puppet-in-chief, that is now squatting in the White House, would be a useless waste of air.

Unfortunately, he and the elitist pigs that have commandeered our government have more in common with the tyrant Khomeini, than they have with the American people...

... and a complacent portion of America -- that cares more about the missteps of a stupid golfer, than the brave people of Iran -- doesn't help matters either!

What these complacent Americans don't realize is they could be going through what the people of Iran are going through sooner than they think.

God bless the brave Iranian people and lets pray the American people wake up before it's to late!

Thank you for your post.
