By way of Gateway Pundit:

CBS compares Iran's Holocaust denier, womens right's abuser, America-hating radical to George W. Bush.

CBS republishes vile New Republic article-- Meet Iran's George W. Bush

On June 12, Iranian voters will choose among four leading candidates for president, but their real choice is singular: whether to continue on the course plotted by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. This ought to be a no-brainer: Ahmadinejad has made a mess of the economy, clamped down on political dissent and social freedoms, militarized the state, and earned the enmity of much of the world. In large Iranian cities, even those who voted for him in 2005 are almost unanimous in their disappointment. But in Iranian elections, demographics are everything. It all depends on who, exactly, shows up to the polls.

And now they can draw phony comparisons about "stolen election". Since the article was published prior to this weekend, it decided to draw comparisons to the U.S. 2004 Election:

This story belongs on a loon site like MSNBC. CBS should be ashamed to have any association with such a story, even as an opinion piece..

I find it incredible that our society has come to this. CBS likes to think of itself as mainstream and impartial, and yet, they can’t even remain civil, let alone impartial.

The SRM is killing us.

I think the closer comparison could be to Obama, with a bunch of Acorn thugs standing outside polling places making sure whitey does not vote. Of course, Obama made sure all those thugs got off without any serious prosecution. That is the type of thuggery that goes on in Iran. Bush won the election by getting more votes and the courts upheld it after examining all the evidence.

We notice the treatment of Joe the plumber and the people attending the Tea Parties and see a similarity between the Iranian president and our own.

This is an obvious attempt to stop Obama from being compared to Imadinnerjacket by coming up with this jackass opinion. Too many things in common with the little dictator and CBS is trying the usual marxist approach, lie before the stupid American people start to draw the comparison by creating a diversion.
Typical crapolla from the media.
