Ahmadinejad Defends Stealing Last Year’s Iranian Election…
I hope this lying, murdering little rodent’s days are numbered…

Ahmadinejad spoke a day after the first anniversary of the election, which sparked widespread outrage within the Islamic republic and gave rise to the opposition Green Movement, whose leaders accused the hardline regime of stealing the election and staging a brutal crackdown on protesters.
“Those who opposed [the election] were governments of injustice who interfered in [our] internal affairs,” Ahmadinejad said Sunday. “Even the American president, who was new to the scene, joined them. But the Iranian nation defeated them.”
Large numbers of protesters took to the streets in defiance of Ahmadinejad’s hard-line regime immediately after the election’s outcome was announced, but Saturday’s anniversary passed with only scattered clashes between opposition protesters and security forces.
The way things are going, Ahmadinejad has more clout worldwide than Obama does. Obama is seen as a joke and a whiny pussy.
It’s hard to pick the most shameful moment of recent American history but I’d say Obama “not wanting to interfere” while Iran was slaughtering it’s citizens has to be close to #1.
