Who do you think is worse, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or President George W. Bush.

That is the topic on John Gibson radio show today.

I think the idiot who asked the question is worse than both of them.

Aw, Riley, don't I get an honorable mention?  Guess I'd better be about more works of evil.

That's like choosing death by hanging or death by lethal injection.

Yes.   angel

Seriously, both are kinda unpopular.  Worse, uh...   I plead the 1st, 2nd and 5th.  Ninth and Tenth for good measure.

The really interesting question would be to ask which one is more out of touch with reality.

Jon Gibson has a radio show now too? Geez, does every talking head on the TV get a radio show?
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.

Sorry, but it was John Gibson, not Jon Gibson.  I need to proof read better.

Yeah but both of those guys don't care about the constitution, so your pleads are futile.

Let's see. Bush can cause the occasional facepalm with his blank look and fumbled speeches. That's about it.

Imajihad is one of the former Iran embassy terrorists who actively supports the stoning of women and hanging of homosexuals in their public squares, who oversees the smuggling of IEDs to Iraq that are killing our soldiers, who wants a nuclear weapon to use on Israel.

Yeah, that's really tough.

I'm not a fan of either, but I'd rather live under Jorge Bush than Abijnuiajahahdahajad.

Not really a fair comparison. Ahmadinejad is only the third or fourth most powerful individual in his state - the Ayatollah is the supreme power (including military/nuclear affairs), and Ahmadetc... is arguably down a peg from the leadership of the Council of Guardians as well (given that they have to approve his candidacy in the first place).

So is this intended to be another Bush Hate thread? 

I agree with the statement above.  The idiot who asked the question is worse than both.

No, it is not a hate Bush thread.  It is a "Which members hates Bush" thread so we can ignore them in the future when they say something stupid about President Bush.

I don't hate him.  He's probably a nice guy.  But I think he's a failure, and dangerous to liberty.  That's all.  Feel free to ignore me henceforth.

Hate is strong, but I've disliked the man for fifteen years, ever since he suckered the city into paying for a new Ballpark that was purely to his profit and has done absolutely nothing for the community. We were going to have a Riverwalk! And all kinds of retail!

But surely all that will come now that we've been conned into building another private revenue source with public moneys, honest!

Is this another one of those "vote for the lesser of two evils" paradoxes Huh?

wooderson:

We are on the same page of music WRT the taxpayers footing the bill for sports venues.  That rubs me raw.

That is nothing, though, compared to the out & out savagery perpetrated by the likes of Amediwhosis.

Thing is, Ahmadinejad hasn't really perpetrated anything. The guy didn't invent or impose sharia in Iran, nor does he have any kind of role in enforcing it. The man is a belligerent nationalist politician who's made his bones on being a 'proud Iranian' and standing up to America, of course he'll defend anything that goes on. (We were the culture that invented "my country, right or wrong," weren't we?)

His apparent views on social justice are no worse than any of our allies (or enemies) in the region: but I rarely see those complaining about Ablahblahblah talking about the evils of the Kuwaiti rulers, the House of Saud, certain groups of friendly Iraqis, Musharraf, etc. et al. Only difference is, Ablahblahblah isn't feeding us oil, or protecting our access to oil, or pretending to be our friend. At least Ablahblahblah gets to be the most visible backwater reactionary of a (mostly) functioning democracy - our backwater reactionary friends don't bother with that.

You are blaming Bush for that?  Why?  Blame your freaking local politicians, not Bush.  Who voted for it?  Talk about misplaced.  I guess you are going to blame him for the new football stadium also?  Bush only owned like 1.5% of the team.  Why are you blaming it all on him anyway? 

I guess this is another Bush hate thread.

Anyone who thinks you can compare Ahmadinejad with ANY US President in a "who is worse" game needs to have their head examined. Or else go live in Iran for awhile and see where you have things better. Or ask a former Iranian that's now a US citizen.

Don't forget this image. Iran, yes. She had an affair.

They buried her so she couldn't move, then threw stones at her till she was dead. There are regulations for the construction of a stoning pit to do this.

Iran is Not Like Us. And Imajihad is an evil, evil man.
