Iran Watch: A Crush on Ahmadninejad? Part Two
LGF: Daily Kos: Ahmadinejad ‘Sounds Entirely Too Reasonable’
No wonder those that are beating the war drums against Iran didn’t want Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak any place American might hear him. Thanks to Columbia University and CPAN he was heard by many. He sounds entirely to reasonable. Hearing his own word doesn’t help the cause of demonizing him as a madman and the most recent Hitler. This is someone we definitely should be talking to. so in the interest of promoting peace and knowledge, I present these short excerpts from his talk at Columbia University today.

The LEFT has a funny way to help Rudy, now don’t they?
The Federal Elections Commission (FEC) SHOULD investigate MoveOn.org and the sweetheart deal they had with the New York Times. But, will they?
Doubtful.
But, keep the issue out there for Rudy, boys. It helps – especially with the fundraising.

Giuliani Poll Watch: Florida – Rudy Leads While Romney Sinks
Rudy Giuliani in New York yesterday
Rasmussen: Election 2008: Florida Republican Primary
- Rudy – 29% (30%, previous month)
- Thompson – 23% (17%)
- McCain – 12% (7%)
- Romney – 11% (15%)
Rudy continues to lead in Florida even with a Thompson bump due to his recent announcement of candidacy. This is the second poll in the past few days that shows Rudy leading.
McCain has increased but has no organization in the state.
Mitt Romney is not gaining traction in Florida and has decreased 4 points since last month. He now resides in fourth place.

Iran Nuclear Watch: Sarkozy – Nuclear Iran Could Lead to WAR
France’s President Nicolas Sarkozy addresses the 62nd United Nations General Assembly at the U.N. headquarters in New York, September 25, 2007.
Sarkozy says letting Iran go nuclear could cause war
Allowing Iran to acquire nuclear weapons could destabilize the world and lead to war, French President Nicolas Sarkozy told the United Nations on Tuesday.
In his maiden speech to the U.N. General Assembly, Sarkozy said: “There will be no peace in the world if the international community falters in the face of nuclear arms proliferation.”
Iran was entitled to nuclear power for civilian purposes, he said, “but if we allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons, we would incur an unacceptable risk to stability in the region and in the world”.
In a broader warning against the dangers of appeasement, the new French leader said: “Weakness and renunciation do not lead to peace. They lead to war.”
Iran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, but the West suspects the Islamic Republic of enriching uranium to develop a nuclear weapons capability.
Underlining French support for tougher sanctions against Tehran, sought by the United States but opposed by Russia and China, Sarkozy said: “We can only resolve this crisis by combining firmness with dialogue.”
Well, DUH.
France is finally “GETTING IT.”
And where would Iran’s nuclear tipped missiles be first aimed? Why at France and the rest of Europe.
The United States has defensive missile capability and a nuclear arsenal that would create ASH out of Iran if the United States were attacked.
China and Russia have cut side deals for Iranian oil and are supplying Iran with advanced military technology.
Where does this leave Europe should Iran develop nuclear weapon technology and capability?
Exactly
In the sights of nuclear blackmail and/or terrorist nuclear attack.
The French President, unlike Jacques Chirac, his predecessor, understands the Islamofascist propensity for deceit and then control. He has seen it first hand in France.
Watch for one last push for United Nations sanctions, then America-EU sanctions and then the inevitable bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities.
Stay tuned………

Antonio Villaraigosa Watch: Mirthala Salinas Transferred to Riverside
City Councilman Antonio Villaraigosa is interviewed by reporter Mirthala Salinas of Telemundo at Factor’s Famous Deli on May 19, 2005 in Los Angeles
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa’s girlfriend, suspended Telemundo Channel 52 reporter and news anchor will PERHAPS be returning to work next week but NOT in Los Angeles.Mayor’s girlfriend being transferred to Riverside
Newscaster Mirthala Salinas, who was suspended without pay for two months in August after her affair with Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa became public, is scheduled to return to work next Monday. But she won’t be taking up her old job as a fill-in anchor on the 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. newscasts for Telemundo KVEA Channel 52, according to sources familiar with the situation.
Instead, Salinas will be sent to the station’s Inland Empire bureau in Riverside as a reporter, sources said, a notable fall for a one-time rising star who has become one of the most recognizable faces in local Spanish-language news.
Which is what a reputable and ethical news organization would have done many months ago – transfer her to a venue where there would be NO conflict of interest.
Mirthala’s contract expires with NBC Telemundo in December and there have been rumors that she may resign and not report to the Inland Empire assignment.
There have also been rumors that her contract will not be renewed in any case.
Anybody out there stalking Getty House? Is she living with the Mayor? Or is the Mayor living with her in the Valley at her Los Angeles lobbyist sponsored condo?
It is reasonable to believe that Mirthala will stay home and play first lady of Los Angeles – after the Mayor’s nasty divorce is over in a few months.
Stay tuned……….
Villaraigosa and Salinas wait out a pause in filming on the north steps of the state Capitol. Salinas is now a news anchor on Telemundo 52, June 19, 2006 (now on leave).

Iran Watch: Ahmadinejad – We Don’t Have Homosexuals
Iran’s president: ‘We don’t have homosexuals’
Columbia University President Lee Bollinger excoriated Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Monday, going through a long list of documented actions and remarks by the firebrand Iranian leader and his government.
“Mr. President, you exhibit all the signs of a petty and cruel dictator,” Bollinger said to applause from many of the 600 people in the room for a speech from the Iranian leader. …
Asked about widely documented government abuse of women and homosexuals in his country, Ahmadinejad said, “We don’t have homosexuals” in Iran. “I don’t know who told you we had it,” he said.
Sharia Law says NO homosexuality and Mahmoud is the grand enforcer of Sharia Law in Iran – hence the denial.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_3RUwAJ_MI&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fflapsblog%2Ecom%2F[/youtube]
From Gay Republic News: Interview with Iranian Gay Couple.
Q: What is the problem of an Iranian homosexual?Kaveh: The first is that we cannot discuss any of our problems. We have a problem with the government due to our sexual orientation; the Islamic government does not accept us and we are condemned to hanging and stoning. In comparison the rest of the problems are minor.
Mere Rhetoric has graphic photos of how the Islamic regime treats homosexuals.
Now, does anyone understand why this Islamic terrorist dictator should NOT have been invited to spread his BS at Columbia University?

Rudy Giuliani on Iran President Ahmadinejad’s appearance today at Columbia University:
SEAN HANNITY: “You had as Mayor of New York a number of confrontations with some of these leaders and now we have this controversy at Columbia today with Mahmud Ahmadinejad and the invitation by Columbia. Your thoughts?â€
MAYOR GIULIANI: “My thoughts are he should never have been invited in the first place. I think this is a distinguished lecture series, what it suggests is you make a selection right? But thousands of people conceivably would want to speak at Columbia, they only pick a certain number, and it would seem to me you don’t pick somebody who is the biggest—the head of the government that’s the biggest sponsor of state terrorism in the world, a government that is by every indication that we have presently engaged in activities that are resulting in the death of American troops., someone who has threatened the existence of the state of Israel, denied the Holocaust. I heard some of his answers on the Holocaust, of course they were absurd. The idea that it needs further research. I think the fact of the Holocaust has been pretty darn well established, doesn’t need further research. This is just part of his constant refrain of anti-Semitism, threats on Israel, threats on the United States. … Doing this, giving him this kind of status–even though the President of Columbia introduced him with an insult, he just responded with an insult–I believe this may underscore some of their fantasies that they really do have a world stage and that they really should be taken seriously and maybe they can fool us and maybe they can fool a certain number of us. So I think this is a damaging thing doing something like this with someone as deranged as Ahmadinejad is. You have no idea what you’re playing with here. So why would you invite him to a distinguished lecture series?â€
HANNITY: “While Bollinger in his introduction said his views were ridiculous, the Holocaust is not an issue in dispute, that his arguments were absurd.â€
GIULIANI: “But then he turned the podium over to him.â€
HANNITY: “Well then he turned the podium over to him and I’ll tell you what was more frightening to me, immediately thereafter, here was Ahmadinejad basically saying he found the introduction insulting but more importantly I want you to listen to the students’ reactions and clapping for Ahmadinejad in the background. … Does that student reaction frighten you as much as it does me?â€
GIULIANI: “Well here’s—this is really to my point, Sean. It frightens me because I don’t know what kind of reaction Ahmadinejad has to that, which means he comes away from this thinking, hey there’s a strong level of support for me in the United States of America, maybe I can push these people a little further, maybe I can take advantage of them a little bit more. That’s why I say in spite of the fact that the president of Columbia introduced him with an insult, he turned the podium over to him and he comes away from it. Ahmadinejad comes away from it saying, ‘Sure there are people there that don’t like me and opposed me and booed me, but hey, there were an awful lot of people there that applauded for me too. So I have some support there.’ And who knows what that results in when you’re dealing—look we have to come to the conclusion that Ahmadinejad is an irrational man. You don’t say the things he says if you’re working on, kind of a rational script. The denial of the Holocaust, the threat of—against Israel, the ways in which he gives five different versions of every single answer. This is a man who’s living in this fantasy world of jihad and world domination by Islamic extremism.â€
HANNITY: “And providing the weaponry to kill American troops.â€
GIULIANI: “And providing weaponry right now, right as we’re speaking possibly taking the lives of American troops. And we hand him a podium at Columbia University. And have no idea of what impact that can have on him? And the idea that it’s in the name of free speech, well that isn’t correct. Not everybody gets to speak at Columbia. …â€

Arnold Care Vs. Hillary Care 2.0: Arnold Care Covers Illegal Aliens
Senator Clinton’s announcement that her “universal” health care plan will not cover illegal aliens puts her at odds with Governor Schwarzenegger of California on that issue, as well as some of her most prominent backers in the Hispanic community.
“Illegal immigrants would not be covered,” Mrs. Clinton, who is seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, said yesterday on ABC’s “This Week” program. “I will continue to have a safety net, which I think is in the best traditions of our country and, also, for public health reasons, absolutely necessary. But we did not cover them in ’93–’94, and my plan does not cover them now.”
This is WHY California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s plan will fail at either the polls or via a later referendum. California voters do not KNOW that they will be asked to vote themselves a hefty tax increase to fund more health care for illegal aliens.
And, why Hillary Care 2.0 is ill-conceived and nothing but a PANDER.
