Right-Wing Neocons Rooting For Ahmadinejad Win

I did not say that all conservatives wanted him to win... never even suggested it... in fact I stated quite clearly that I hoped my conservative friends would be just as outraged as I was....

The requirement to quote the article title accurately prevented me from changing it to read.... Some right wing neocons rooting for Ahmadinwjad win.... which would have been far more accurate.

BREAKING:

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has won.



He scored 66.19% of the vote

Here's the WIKI link

en.wikipedia.org...


Seems he canned facebook operating in the country throughout the election..

I'd say the Neo-Cons would be dancing, but, I doubt they have enough core humanity to even have awareness of their bodies.

peace.

Like your company is the hate of conservatives Grover? I love the hate that someone like this writes, then they say 'Peace' at the end. Hypocrisy knows no bounds. For the record you do seem to be a good chap Grover.....

Actually, I'm hoping whoever receives a majority of the vote gets the Presidency. I don't remember seeing any of my Conservative friends with 'Vote Ahmadinejad' bumperstickers on their cars, either. But, this is from Huffington, so you should take it for what it is, a story slamming conservatives from an extremely socialist source.

isnt it obvious grover? Hasnt it become apparent to you? The fringe hardliners and neocons needs Ahmadinejad... and Ahmadinejad needs the fringe hardliners and the neocons to continue support from the Iranians.

He has little power regarding rules. That is run by the clerics alone. The clerics even chose the candiates to run They shortlist it to 3.

Technically this role is a mouthpiece with economic management and international political muppetry.
The Iranian people are so lovely. His represenatation of them is poor on the world stage. His rhetorics are deliberatly placed to back up the hardline Sharia law of the clerics and the Ayotollah. The crucial issues rest still with them.

He has manged to keep Iran from complete implosion to the goverments credit (and questionable activities at times). The outcome of this election will not sharply alter Iran's main policies, including its relationship with Washington. This still remains with the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

So 'conservatives' either way dont need to worry who gets elected as the power base remains the same.

Its really just a concern for conservative sensabilities that a hard line Islamic regime have ultimate power in a country with resources and nuclear capabilites.

Do you have any IDEA of the definition of NEO-CON, i think not. I also believe you dont listen to the radio and tv personalities you mention in your thread. You demonize them, yet they are the voices speaking out against the riff-raff that continues to plague dc. They have not claimed to be the leaders of conservatism, yet MANY people listen and follow their ideas because it falls in line with their own thought trane. A neo-con is one of YOUR left wing kooks that fell of the wagon. I think the OP's post has no validity because MOST Americans would like to see ahmadinejad GONE FOR GOOD..............
EAGLES FOR ETERNITY

The same people that use George Soros funded websites to spew their propaganda are the first one crying foul when FOX News or WorldNetDaily as a source.

I am a Conservative (duh) and I would like nothing more than to see Ackiminajihad have a humiliating defeat.

For a conservative to be a "neo-con" he first had to be a liberal. Alot of people don't realize that. So most people who use that term are almost always half wrong.

The rest of us are hoping that he loses. A victory will be further justification for Israel to launch an unprovoked attack and lead us into another war. Personally, I think we could save a lot of money spent toppling governments if we didn't establish and fund those government in the first place. The "evil Arabs" we're taught to hate and fear were once employees of the CIA, e.g., Sadam, Bin Laden, etc. Unless Bin Laden has developed Nano-thermite, I'm not worried. Plus, he's been dead since 2001.

That makes zero sense at all. Let me guess - you think the KKK guy who shot up the Holocaust Museum was a liberal too? Maybe you thought that the guy who killed Dr. Tiller was also a liberal? So, any conservatives who turn out to be crazy violent must have been secretly liberal?

Ever heard of a thing called HUMOR johnny2127??

"better the devil you know"

Possibly
But his opposition campaigned on green policies, support for womens rights (his wife is a faculty dean IN Tehrain) reducing unemployment and stabilizing relations with the west.

How much he could actually have achieved with the supreme ruler and the clerics was probably going to be mininal.
Rememebr always Iran is NOT ruled by the president.
It is ruled by the Ayotollah and clerics. It is a ISLAMIC state under sharia law, not democratic laws.

Thanks for proving my point. Bet you use the term all the time and have no idea what it means. You're not alone, so don't feel bad.

Neo = New Con = Conservative.

If you have been conservative all your life, you can not be declared a "neocon".

Your statement regarding his 2001 mortality, way off base. He is still alive, much to the chagrin of many ops agents.

Save money?? what is your life or your families life worth to you? i would spend every cent i had fighting for my cause..........................

Christian radicals are given rights.
Muslim radicals deserve rights too.

So don't try to act smart here.

that's only true to an extent
It only takes "one" liberal to become a conservative to start a "neo con" movement

you can, by sheer human will, change your midn no matter what affiliation you happen to be, this is true

but the "neocon" movement is addressing the conservative idealistic foundation in more modern terms.

It's more of a rebellion to the old conservative ways than anything.

Personally - i don't see how one can take pride in saying "Im not a neocon, im a real life conservative"

that's like saying "I believe in the same ideals as white america in the 50's"

if you're a true and true conservative, then nothing has ever changed for you - since hte very beginning of conservatism, by your OWN feeble standards


if you've gotten past racism, segregation, sexism, etc, then you're a NEO CON because you've moved past the bigotry of the time in which conservatism was founded and bigotry was embraced.


Unbelievable.
