Not at all the same thing.

We have free, fair (relatively so) and open elections in this country.

Nations that do not have free, fair and open elections need to have their domestic affairs interfered with so that we don't need to one day send a bunch of our innocent young men to fight their innocent young men.

The Obama administration failing to support the 2009 popular uprising in Iran was nothing less than the chance to avoid a future nuclear exchange with Iran.

We may be fortunate enough to have a second chance to support regime change in Iran.

If we get that opportunity, we must capitalize on it.

Without Iran pushing the Shia faith, then Wahhabi would be left as the sole export of terror...and that could be controlled.

Because Tweeting is actually DOING something right? If Tweeting was making policy, we'd actually have an useful president. Instead we have a president who spends more time on social media than a gaggle of teenagers. It's pathetic.

Liberals demand the separation of Church and State here, but see no problem when other people suffer under Mosque and State.

Why? well the ideology is more important than people. Liberals (not all) believe deeply, they know what's best in the long run, for the state, and therefore people will benefit.

In other words, if they run things, all will benefit at the expense of a few. The question that liberals can't answer is, what happens when the few are no longer "there".

Answer = new world order. All wealth must be controlled by the few. Ooooppps... looks like circular thinking to me.

I'll agree Iran has a shot to become a better neighbor in the world, sadly based on their
past just like Barry Soroto A.K.A Barack Hussein Obama they will pass on the opportunity.
Obama never wrote that.
