Look who's supporting the Iranian tyrants

Michael Rubin, "The Corner" @ National Review

I've posted before about the Bahais whom the Islamic Republic of Iran has charged with capital offenses and imprisoned. There is no basis for the charges. The Iranian government's motivation appears, plain and simply, to be religious intolerance. There's background here.

Well, today the House of Representatives voted 407-2 to condemn Tehran for its “state-sponsored persecution of its Bahá’í minority."

The two dissenters: Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich.

#5  I'm pretty sure i saw 2 ufo,s at once some time ago.

(I'm sure they were unidentified flying objects, i'm however not ready or willing to speculate on their origins or purpose)

I'm also pretty sure that Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich are complete morons.

#4  I think Paul's argument is that this is none of our business, that darn near every nation has to a greater or lesser extent a "persecuted minority", at least in the opinion of that minority, and most importantly, the only reason for pointing this out is to justify foreign adventures.

The Soviet Union used to be very big on this, using "the mistreatment of blacks in the American South", as an excuse to do lots of totally unrelated and abusive crapola that had nothing to do with American blacks. I think they even included it as a reason that America should not involve itself with the invasion of Hungary in 1956 and Czechoslovakia in 1968.

#3  When Ron is right, he's right. When he's wrong, he's very, very wrong.

#2  I saw UFO too, and it did not make me a loon. It is more than likely that Kucinich was a loon before his UFO encounter.

Ron Paul haven't seen a UFO and he is a loon too. I don't want to make a logical fallacy here, but you get my drift?

#1  Rep. Dennis Kucinich Acknowledges UFO Sighting

Dennis is coming up on the 2 year anniversary Oct 31, 2007 of the report above.

And the other guy :
Through perverse court decisions and years of cultural indoctrination, the elitist, secular Left has managed to convince many in our nation that religion must be driven from public view. The justification is always that someone, somewhere, might possibly be offended or feel uncomfortable living in the midst of a largely Christian society, so all must yield to the fragile sensibilities of the few. The ultimate goal of the anti-religious elites is to transform America into a completely secular nation, a nation that is legally and culturally biased against Christianity. — Ron Paul

In Iran the shoe is on the other foot Sir Ron.
