Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s message to our president ought to give all the leaders of our country as well as the rest of us pause. He is absolutely right to suggest that President Bush, and the rest of our nation, “do some soul-searching and atone for past U.S. transgressions.”
While many proclaim that we are a “Christian nation,” we are not. We are not even a moral nation. If we were, our economic policies, both domestic and foreign, would reflect a deep, abiding care and compassion for our brothers and sisters around the globe. We would care for the Earth. And our criminal justice system would be more than an oxymoron.
Ahmadinejad is right: Christ and the great prophets throughout history would rail against our nation’s policies and actions, both at home and abroad.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
She probably wrote a similar letter just before Hitler invaded Poland.
This woman is very very lost.She believes the lies of haSatan !
Wow. If this woman is representative of Washington State, they are really lost out there.
Well, I certainly agree with that, but not for the reasons advanced.
Bon voyage,Babs!
This writer could always pack up and move to Iran, where she could live under this monster's rule. (But she'd best pick up a burqa on her way out of the country...)
"Ahmadinejad is right: Christ and the great prophets throughout history would rail against our nation’s policies and actions, both at home and abroad.
Of course, the White House and many in Congress will dismiss Ahmadinejad, to their great shame and inner impoverishment. He has held up a mirror for all of us in which to see ourselves, and we can’t bear to look at what we see. So, we kill the messenger – or ignore or bully him.
Such arrogance, such hubris will be our downfall. "

I'll contribute to buy BARBARA SCHLOTFELDT (the author) a one way ticket to Iran, ASAP and petition that she be stripped of her US citizenship for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
The Dem talking points and the Terrorist talking points are identical.
The thing is, it doesn't matter if Ahmadinejad or Bin Ladin or any of those folks have a legitimate point or not.
They won't lose because they are wrong (just as they won't win if they are right). The will lose because they are our opponet. Everything else is peripheral.
Why don't more people 'get' that?
Just Googled her. A major USA hating homosexual leftist. You can find a bunch of her letters to editors to get the drift. Nothing new here.
She would be at home at the Seattle Post Intelligencer in her area, an ironic name for a liberal newspaper if I ever heard one.
It was noted on Foxe's WSJ Report last night (Paul Gigot's show), that the Iranian nutball's letter has some language that seemed designed to get the global left on his side, in the same manner USSR used to do.
Lo and behold, they found themselves a sucker, of the "blame America first" crowd, to buy into Mr A.'s line of BS.
It's real simpe: Cr*p on the US, and the America-haters at home and abroad just lap it up.
"Ahmadinejad is right: Christ and the great prophets throughout history would rail against our nation’s policies and actions, both at home and abroad."
How is he right? Didnt Christ talk about removing the plank in one own's eye before casting aspersions on others?
Isn't Mr A. just another hypocrite, bellowing at the sins of the Great Satan, yet not acknowledging the sins of his own regime:
- stoning girls to death for the 'crime' of being rape victims
- putting opposition figures in prison and in some csaes killng them
- abusing human rights
- having no free press
- supporting terrorist organizations and sponsoring terrorist acts, such as Hezbollah attacks on Israel
etc.
So a dictator can 'shame us' by merely telling us we are not morally perfect, while their crimes go unspoken?
Such a world is an ugly ugly place, and it is the hubris of the America-haters not America that makes it possible.
omg it was bound to happen.
If you look at the bottom of the article, you can read/add comments on this drivel. A few of us Freepers already have. Have some fun!
I posted yesterday as "Flabbergasted" What a nutburger.
"talked to an Iranian woman who said she was a pacifist who supported Ahmadenijad. "
Are you a real Iraqi kurd?
Did you explain to her, that among the oppressions in Iran, is the oppression of the kurds?
Can she explain how being a 'pacifist' and supporting a terrorist-sponsoring regime that sent weapons into Iraq, gave money so Hezbollah can war against Israel and other factions in Lebanon and make terror crimes against innocents?
Not even mentioning that Iran is the most anti-feminist fascist regime on planet earth now with the taliban gone, they are #1 at killing women rape victims, and Code Pink is supposedly feminist, which makes her support for the mad Mullahs, strange at best... or maybe she is just a big fat liar, because one would have to be brain-damaged to take the position she does. A secular feminist leftist 'pacifist' out there supporting a Hitler-like fascist theocratic regime, fancy that.
Is there a reason for her to be in America if she hate "AmeriKKKa" but loves the MadMullahs of Tehran?!?
"This is about demonizing the United States and backing a murderous thug who wants nothing more than death and destruction."
CORRECT. That explains the above. the ONLY thing they have in common with Iranian MadMullahs is ... HATRED OF AMERICA.
" We need another 'McCarthyism' stit, but this we need to expose both the Communists and Jihadists. This bullshit has got to end."
Liberals demonized McCarthy for a *reason*. They wanted the cover to be safely anti-American. They even have gone so far to invent a fake Jefferson quote about dissent being highest form of patriotism (he never said it but John Kerry recently claimed he did).
A divorce rate of nearly 50% perhaps?
