I think that’s been the problem with right wing coverage of the story. It’s not all about Obama. There are real things happening and not everything can be twisted to make Obama look bad.
Let’s suppose that Charles is right and the elections were legitimate. How is Obama publicly supporting the overthrow of a legitimately elected government going to help? There are a lot of possibilities. They know what’s going on and maybe they’re handling the situation correctly. I don’t think the right is going to score any big points out of this situation and they might even damage themselves while attempting it.


1. BARACK OBAMA IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

2. LEGITIMATELY ELECTED GOVERNMENT?


Iran is a democracy now? The only legitimately elected government in the ME is in Israel and the Obama administration is 100% trying to reverse that election.
