He has condemned the violence and brutality - I've seen two separate instances already this week where he does exactly that.
Selective hearing on your part, again.
No one is saying that. What they are saying is obama should be condemning the violence and brutality, the corrupt and stolen election - but he won't even do that. Instead, he sits there with his finger to the wind while other countries step in the void where the US should be and historically has been.
There is nothing wrong with condemning such a process.
You really need to get off the FAUX Proganda News Network. Obama has already made statements of concern. Course you would know cause you listen to propaganda. What do you want Obama to do? Launch a salvo of missles into Tehran? Really glad the GOP is moot, kind of stinks don't it to be out of power...
Canada could do far worse than having Lawrence Cannon replace the current neo-con prime minister Stephen Harper. Lawrence has within the inner conservative political circles been suggested as a replacement for Harper if the Liberals and Michael Ignatieff force an election and for any reason Harper decides to step down. He was considered for the position of deputy prime minister before Harper axed that position in a cost cutting move.
It is rare that I publicly praise any politicians, but the honorable Lawrence Cannon has proven himself to be a responsible minister in the transportation, infrastructure, and communities portfolio. His red Tory leanings which are socially liberal, but fiscally conservative have shown through his support for same sex marriages, and non government involvement in abortion, while being against gun controls and support for tax cuts, balanced budgets and reducing our military adventures have convinced me to support any future attempts by Mr. Cannon at running for the prime minister role.
Realistically he is the most likely candidate in Canada to support libertarian goals and for that I salute him.
Obama is far more popular in Canada that the U.S! When he visited Ottawa in Feb he knew about his strong standing in Canadian polls and said if things go sour in the U.S - there is always Canada.
Its funny how universally popular he is almost everywhere outside the USA and how he is so roundly vilified by a certain segment within his own country.

Lawrence Cannon is a better choice than the other two dummies (Harper & Ignatieff). But it would be nice to have a leader with some real charisma like Obama. He might be a big, evil socialist to many in America, but Obama's pretty much toes the centerline in Canada. I'm still willing to trade!

Perhaps you could post one. I'm sure the Iranians who had even the sorry six-one, half-dozen the other chioces they did have taken away because the Mollahs wanted Amina-nazi would appreciate that the POTUS at least feels their pain.
I agree. It is their internal politics and not our business.
That's what Carter went with because he lacked the resolve to take the political heat with which Bush Jr got hit. The end result of his inaction was five avoidable wars and a soon to be nuclear power that continues to support Islamo-fascism and terrorists world wide. I expect we haven't seen the worst from Iran yet.
I am not. Canadian Conservatives are even less connected to reality than ours.
I would like to use your health care system however.
I disagree, our Conservatives are called Democrats by American standards.
The Fox News crowd would have a field day with the political parties in Canada! Our Liberal Party would be socialists, the NDP would be called communist, the Greens would be called eco-terrorists and the Bloc Quebecois would get slammed as cheese-eating surrender monkeys and reverse racists!
