That’s taking your own life in your hands.

I wish the people of Iran well.

Jimmy Carter, the gift that keeps on giving. He didn’t know
that setting up an Islamic Caliphate might cause problems.

The score was only 1 to Zero, but that’s all it took to make a Loser of the Iranian Team. The Iranian people enjoyed that opportunity to throw some mud in the Ayatollahs fuzzy face.
It must be very difficult to score in soccer.

… the protesters in Iran are risking their lives to deliver their message to Ayatollah Khomeini and his men…

Khamenei.

God be with the protesters.

The Iranians I knew in UsA insisted they were Persians, not invented Iranians. I would imagine the feeling is quite common in Iran.

Did you ever ask them how the name PERSIA became IRAN?

I used to think Carter was the worst president we ever had. I don’t think that way anymore.

Weird. I suppose these Iranians have a romantic view of what the U.S. once was.

He may be the worst legitimate president, but then ones that
served now include Obama and Biden.

Part of the reason Biden looks so bad, is that he is stuck
on Obama’s old foreign policy quirks.

I grant you, there’s a lot to digest on this. Carter also
give away our rights to run the Panama Canal, not even
trying to negotiate an extension.

He handed off the Reagan an economy worse than what we
have now, so he was a jerk extraordinaire.

His handing over of Iran to Islamic Extremists will loom
large as Iran marches on toward Nuclear weapons status.

Update: Reportedly one man who took part in those celebrations was in a car with his girlfriend and beeped his horn...and a Security Service thug shot him in the head inside his car. Dead.

Don’t forget, Carter pardoned the draft resistors who went to Canada. I had to go to Vietnam, which I hated every minute I was there, because some of these A holes went to Canada. I think THAT really torqued my jaws. He was pretty bad alright. I agree, he was the worst legitimately elected president. I don’t think Obama and Biden were legitimate at all.

Obama is not a citizen. I firmly believe he was born in
Kenya. His grandmother stated she was there.

She may have had mental problems when she said it, but
the birth records in Hawaii are almost worthless.

Any parent can bring their kid in and get a birth
certificate.

Biden didn’t get five or six million more votes than Hillary
or Obama.

Soccer is a very low scoring game. But 1-0 is quite sufficient.

I am not surprised the Iranian people cheered for the US. They really hate their government. I knew quite a few Iranian Air Force officers in Texas. One said he didn’t quite know what was going on, but he didn’t think it was going to be good.

Things must be very difficult emotionally for the leftists. It would pain them deeply to see the protests in Iran and China topple their governments: Iran because the Iranian government, like the left, hates America; China because it is totalitarian and at least nominally communist. If those governments fail, the left would feel almost as bad as when their beloved Soviet Union fell. That’s probably why Biden is giving neither protest any support: He does not want to offend his communist, anti-American base.

Not so weird. The US and “the West” have deteriorated considerably from what we were, but we are still about 1000% better in most respects...

If their own military sees it, not good for the mullahs.
