U.S. Doubts 'Iranians' have 'Many Political Choices' in Polls!

"One thing I'd note though is the fact that the government had a heavy hand in deciding who could and could not run raises some questions about whether or not the Iranian people had a full menu of political choices available to them in this election," McCormack said.

"Then again that is not something that is new. There have been plenty of past instances in Iran where the government has summarily scratched names of potential candidates off the list, telling them they couldn't run for office."

Wait a minute...Is the U.S. talking about Iran, or THEMSELVES? LOL!

The irony is so think you can cut it with a knife!

>WE< have no choice with our Corporate hand-chosen selection of Electees! NONE of these people gives two sh**s about making America a better place! They are all just more puppets being danced on the strings of Elitists agendas!

You leaders have a lot of balls talking about other people's electoral processes when your own is the most rigged and corrupted farce on the planet!

Iran's spiritual council banned all the reformers from running. Which the majority of the population, especially young voters, support.

Iran Doubts 'Americans' have 'Many Political Choices' in Polls!

It has been long suspected by the Iranian government that the US election consists of only 2 real choices the American people can pick for their president.

"this is just appalling" "How can you expect a free and representative government when you only get to chose from 2 criminals?" ; Anona Merican

Attempts to interview the White House have been largely ignored, some Iranians wishing to express their heart-felt support for the Americans in their time of "freedom crisis" have been shot at.

One Iranian was however mistaken for an eleven-year-old child from Mexico, and managed to get a short interview with President Bush.

"Mr. President. Do you have any comments to make regarding th..."
"Oh hey, did you get lost little feller? Which factory did you come from?"


More on this at eleven.

Yeah, the irony is not lost on me, either! Just from the title of the thread (before reading any posts), I was wondering if Iran and America had accidentally been transposed!

Come on, how can they make comments like this when our own system is clearly just as rigged!


Then, when we DO get a good candidate, he is defamed and ignored by our media!! How can we change the system when the system doesn't want to change?

Yep-The whole Ron Paul thing was unreal. Our disgustingly corrupted MSM were so transparent in their shunning him and downplaying his chances it was alarming. But it worked! The people just kind of gave up. It shows how the entire process is 'honed' and molded. It's a gigantic 'illusion of choice', when in reality there is no choice but that given to us by the corporate / M.I.C. elitists.
