5. ???

[KitchenWitch]

4. Oh HELL no.

7. By even offering people the chance to vote "no" in your

biased poll, it must mean that you favor going to war with Iran!!

Why do you hate America Lirwin2?


on edit...typo

[Clintonista2]

9. Well, to be honest, putting aside every word/action he has ever said/done, I'm sure he's very nice!

:rofl:

[cboy4]

10. Oh whatever...."Concerned DUer hand-wringing is hilarious."

8. Yes, he should be acknowledged for his academic competence at the very least

His test score ranked him 132nd among over 400,000 participants that year,<19> landing him at the Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST) as an undergraduate student of civil engineering.

12. the source for that is, ummm, his blog

i should make a blog and say that i scored 1600 on my SAT before they let you use calculators. then everyone will know i'm smart.


"Describing himself as a "distinguished student", the president tells how he excelled at school, coming 132nd out of more than 400,000 students to take a university entrance test - despite suffering from a nose bleed at the time."

18. I answered the poll question truthfully

the question was do you have ANY respect what so ever. I do respect education and engineering.

I don't think less of vegetarianism because of Hitler.

[Cameron27]

11. No

[AlCzervik]

13. no and that doesn't mean i have any respect for *. I think it's possible to hold

them both in contempt.

[dajoki]

14. NO!!

[11 Bravo]

15. I'm not sure if "respect" is the proper term.

He holds some truly contemptible and bizarre beliefs, but he had the stones to show up in a venue where he had to know that he was going to take heat. Contrast that with our own jug-eared little prick whose appearances run the gamut from fat cat donors to troops from whom the UCMJ demands a cordial audience.

[Fozzledick]

16. He reminds me a lot of george b*sh

Not as stupid and cowardly, but just as malicious and dishonest.

[donsu]

17. I respect his bravery in trying to defend his country from the neo cons

he is religiously insane with all that entails.

(being an educated man he might not be as religiously insane as projected. he might be very afraid of the religiously insane men that run religion and govt. in Iran.)

and he thinks women are beneath him.

and of course, being religiously insane, allows murders without qualm.

[SoCalDem]

19. He just is what he is.. an elected official of a country

His electoral system may not be totally above board..but then maybe ours is not all that great either..

Because our leaders do not "like" his country, he's worthy of derision, and criticism..

When we 'loved' the shah, the shah's own people mostly hated him.. go figure :shrug:

[Kelly Rupert]

20. No. If he were running for an American office, DU would absolutely despise him. n/t

[NaturalHigh]

21. None at all.

[Forkboy]

22. nope

[Dr. Strange]

23. No--he likes Carrot Top.

And that is completely unacceptable!

[Clintonista2]

27. Aww that's low!

:rofl:

[KamaAina]

24. Ahmadinejad: Farsi for "Bush"?

both are godstruck would-be theocrats who are absolutely convinced of their own righteousness to the detriment of all other life on Earth. :scared: In a way, it's amazing the two of them don't get along better.

Freudian typo: 'own' not 'won'!! :dunce:

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

25. About as much as I have for most politicians erecting bogeymen.

Whether the bogeyman is "Satanic America", or, "Zionism", or "The Empire of Evil", or "Terrorist States", or "FemiNazis", or Ahmadinejad.

[Horse with no Name]

26. About the same respect I have for Bush

both stupid little madmen with personal agendas that the thinking people in their respective country's hate.

[Snarkturian Clone]

28. No, but my vote is not really fair.

I don't respect much of anyone :bounce:
