1. So the people in Iran who thought their fellow citizens would just sit and take it,

like we did in 2000, were wrong. In Mexico, after their last stolen election, the authorities basically waited it out. A few times when the demonstrations got rowdier than usual they sent the police in with lots of force and gas, but for the most part they just waited until people gave up trying to make the courts seat the actual winner.

Hard to take.

3. K/R

If opposites attract, it's now easy to see why Ahmadinejad and Bush repelled each other.

4. This is sad to see.

I was really hoping they might get a chance to see change that they desperately need.

5. This could bring down the conservatives UNLESS Washington screws it up

by opening their fucking mouths.

6. It worked in the Ukraine, and Phillipines, and even Russia

People power. Keep it up. They are a very young population (and not weighed down by a fast food diet).
It's possible to alter this unfair result.
