Disgrace: Gibbs says Ahmadinejad is the elected leader of Iran
posted at 3:50 pm on August 4, 2009 by Allahpundit
Via Breitbart. He could have dodged this question a dozen ways. He could have said the election’s irrelevant from our standpoint since we have to play the cards we’re dealt; he could have noted, as Obama’s often done in the past, that true power resides in the supreme leader so it’s only his legitimacy that’s at issue; or he could have told the truth and said that all Iranian elections are shams since true reformers aren’t allowed on the ballot. Instead, so desperate are these tools to get Iran to the bargaining table and show Americans some sort of dividend from Hopenchange diplomacy that Gibbs actually acknowledges Ahmadinejad as the “elected leader” — the same lie the regime’s been telling the world and the same lie Iranians have been dying in the streets to challenge. As a de facto — and entirely gratuitous — endorsement of their corruption, it’s the lowest moment of The One’s presidency so far. And the only thing that’ll take the sting out of it is watching all the dumb liberals who painted their Twitter avatars green two months ago in solidarity with Mousavi’s supporters hemming and hawing now over how our lord and savior really had no choice but to kiss ass here.
Oh, and in case you’ve forgotten, Obama himself has already set a September deadline for negotiations to happen before he starts pushing for a new round of sanctions against Iran. Which means Gibbs endorsed the election result to preserve the possibility of talks for another eight whole weeks. Eight weeks.
Update: Iranian dissident Raymond Jahan has a question: “How can Obama recognize Ahmadinejad as the ‘chosen’ leader? Chosen by the minority & by cheating, yes.”
Update: More Jahan: “It wasn’t an election. It was a one-way road to continous dictatorship. American ppl should question their president.”

Why is everyone surprised, doesn’t this fit his MO, acknowledging illegitimate dictators?
right2bright on August 4, 2009 at 4:28 PM
Of course Obama will take the side of the mullah’s and terrorist.
This is not a problem for an administration whose only admitted enemy is Bush and Republicans in general.
Ahmadeinejad,Hugo,Castro,and Putin all get the white glove treatment.

therightscoop on August 4, 2009 at 4:31 PM
Not really. Particularly not with the current Iranian government.
I was reading a really good article about how the Phillipines started off with just this type of protest, over legit voting, and evolved.
So I guess I’m hopeful that this really will evolve into change.
Until then.
Honestly, I don’t have any real sense of what would work or not work in the Middle East.
Probably it doesn’t matter.
AnninCA on August 4, 2009 at 4:31 PM
I’m sure our Iranian-American friends are livid about this statement. They should voice their disgust.

Abby Adams on August 4, 2009 at 4:37 PM
Obama just spit all over the graves of those who died fighting this regime. And frankly, he doesn’t give a crap.
Now ask yourself this. If they don’t care about people dying for freedom and would even go so far as to publicly prop up those who did the killing, why should you ever trust the Obama administration to ever do anything in your best interest?
Low point? You bet. Will they jump all over a chance to go even lower? What do you think?

Ferris on August 4, 2009 at 4:38 PM
All the more reason not to give the current one legitimacy, right?
That’s my hope as well, but I see statements like these by Gibbs and Obama himself as serious barriers to that. The more they grant Ahmadinejad legitimacy, the harder it will become for the protesters to gain any traction. And without serious weapons, I don’t see how they can be anything but sitting ducks who will either learn to play by these invented rules and sacrifice their freedom, or just die.
Esthier on August 4, 2009 at 4:38 PM
Democrats are as quick to say Ahmadinejad is an elected leader, as they were to say that elections were stolen from Gore and Kerry.
It seems that recognizing the “election” a dirtbag dictator is more palatable to them that the idea that a Republican can win an election. It’s the new bipartisanship – democrats and dictators.
Scrappy on August 4, 2009 at 4:39 PM

Look, of course Obama is going to stand beside his little dinnerjacket buddy – they are the same.
Don’t believe me …

OBMAMA: “The Protests at the townhalls are not genuine – they are sponsored by the evil insurance companies!!”
Evil is … as evil does.
HondaV65 on August 4, 2009 at 4:43 PM
With Obama,if you want to know where he stands,you don’t listen to what he has to say, you look at the positions and policies of the people he appoints.
Obama’s foreign policy team is anti-Israel and full of appeasement and capitulation to the dictators and terrorist around the world:
Samantha Power and Obama’s Foreign Policy Team
By Richard Baehr and Ed Lasky
http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/02/samantha_power_and_obamas_fore_1.html
Who are Obama’s Foreign Policy Advisors?
—————————————————
The most horrific name on Obama’s list, however, is Malley’s.
———————————————————
Zbigniew Brzezinski
Here is one small example of the idiocy this “liberal genius”brings to the table:
“
” [Blum, 1995; Z Magazine, 1997]
Brzezinski interview:
Q: Despite this risk, you were an advocate of this covert action. But perhaps you yourself
desired this Soviet entry into war and looked to provoke it?
Brzezinski: It isn’t quite that. We didn’t push the Russians to intervene, but we
knowingly increased the probability that they would.
Q: When the Soviets justified their intervention by asserting that they intended to fight
against a secret involvement of the United States in Afghanistan, people didn’t believe
them. However, there was a basis of truth. You don’t regret anything today?
Brzezinski: Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of
drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the
Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter: We now have the
opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam war. Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow
had to carry on a war unsupportable by the government, a conflict that brought about the
demoralization and finally the breakup of the Soviet empire.
Q: And neither do you regret having supported the Islamic fundamentalists, having given
arms and advice to future terrorists?
Brzezinski: What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the
collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central
Europe and the end of the cold war?
Q: Some stirred-up Moslems? But it has been said and repeated: Islamic fundamentalism
represents a world menace today.
Brzezinski: Nonsense!
. . .
Real genius here,”yea I helped start and supported radical jihadist and to think they would be a problem later is just
“NONSENSE”.
Here is some of the other colossal mistakes this liberal genius and his buddy Carter were a part of:

heshtesh on August 4, 2009 at 4:44 PM
This is an outrage! Iranian people took to the streets, knowing they would be slaughtered, yet they went willingly to protest the fake election.

I am ashamed of our government. We used to stand for freedom and democracy. Today, our president stands for tyrants and dictators.
This is truly a sad day for America.

Who really is surprised that the COIC (Community Organizer in Chief) would have a problem with any fixed election? After all, what they did in Iran was merely ACORN the vote… Chicago-style.

Chaz706 on August 4, 2009 at 4:56 PM
Looking at Obama’s foreign policy crew,it should be no surprise that Obama has only made demands of Israel and pretty much kissed the Mullah’s butts:
This is a little background on his Advisor’s Rice and Powers.
Samantha Power
POWERS ON ISRAEL:
We have already given Hamas over 900 million dollars since Obama was elected.
We have cut off arms sales to Israel including not shipping the black hawks they utilize so well in protecting their boarders.
Yes, pull our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan and insert them into Palestine to protect them from the EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEvil Jews.
Is that Ahmadinejad laughing in the background?
This woman here is a real genius:
Susan Rice:
This is all you need to know about her to come to the conclusion of how dangerously stupid she is:
Now these are the same people who whined and criticized Bush about Tora Bora where we had thousands of troops putting their lives on the line to get Osama.
Here is one of the many times that the democratic leadership could have had Osama handed to them on a silver platter but turned it down.
“Smart power indeed”
She is one of the few people still vouching for Joe Wilson’s credibility long after everyone else realized that not even vultures could find any shred of credibility on the Wilson carcass.
Talking to Hamas is going to escalate into Green Tea parties with Hezbollah,Iran,and Syria.
They will rejoice together saving the “innocent civilians” in Palistine from the EEEVVVVIIIILLLLL genocidal Zionist.
This cut off of support and appeasement coming from the Obama administration will force Israel to deal with their Iranian,Hamas,and Hezbollah problems with military strikes and possibly all out war.
How can the so called “smart ones” be so dangerously ignorant when it comes to the lessons of failure that appeasement has been throughout history.

Someone who will use his election as a chance to finally punish America for being that mean country and remake it in his image. The city on a hill is no more and I hold every single soul that voted for Obama accountable. Stupid fools.

Ferris on August 4, 2009 at 5:39 PM
Obama’s Secretary of State is absolutely unfit for the job
according to…..THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION ITSELF!!.
How about Mrs. 3 am phone call herself.
Lets let the Obama administration break down Hillary’s credentials when they were running against her in the primaries:
Senator Clinton’s Claims of Foreign Policy Experience Are Exaggerated
By Greg Craig
To: Interested Parties
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/03/clintons_exaggerated_experienc.html
Then we have the sage of international policy.
The smartest man in the room according to democrats from all over Capital Hill.
The man that was brought on as VP for his intelligence (according to liberals of course) and vast knowledge of international affairs MR. JOE BIDEN himself:
“I’m sorry I’m not an economist,” Biden said as he was describing the methodology. “My background is foreign policy and the constitution. “
Of course, that’s why Barack Obama put Biden in charge of the economic stimulus project.
Biden Has Served As Obama’s Top Foreign Policy Critic, Even Saying Obama Is Not Ready To Be President:
(ABC’s, “This Week,” 8/19/07)
Biden On Whether He Would Meet Unconditionally With The Leaders Of Rogue States As Obama Said He Would:
Remarks At The National Press Club, Washington, DC, 8/1/07)
Obama apparently did not share many views within the democratic party concerning the supreme intelligence of Biden:
Obama Attacked Proponents Of The Iraq War As Having “Helped To Authorize And Engineer The Biggest Foreign Policy Disaster In Our Generation.”
(Sen. Barack Obama, MSNBC/AFL-CIO Democrat Presidential Forum, 8/7/07)
Of Course Biden felt this way about Saddam before it became politically expedient to be anti-war…you know…after voting for war:
Biden Called Saddam Hussein “An Extreme Danger To The World.”
(NBC’s “Meet The Press,” 8/4/02)
Biden: “We Have No Choice But To Eliminate The Threat.”
(NBC’s “Meet The Press,” 8/4/02)
How in the world the difference’s of such serious issues came together so quickly that they could run on the same ticket revels that politics trumps policy and what’s best for this country concerning these two poseur’s.
I guess it was Biden’s incredible genius when it comes to international affairs that sealed the deal.
Like:
In a vignette at the end of the article, Biden ponders mightily over how the US should respond to 9/11:
The hits just keep coming:
Biden Suggests That Dividing The Iraqi Population Will Bring Unity To The Region. Biden:
How do the people who are in touch with reality feel about slow Joe the Plagiarizer’s plan:
Saudi Prince Turki Al-Faisal Said Biden’s Plan Would Be “A Disaster.”
Press Release, 10/30/06)
Ouch!!
Biden Says Violence May Cause Disengagement From Iraq (Update1)
Absolute genius!!!!
All the terrorist have to do is go all out on a campaign of death and destruction thus insuring their No.1 enemy,the US, will abandon Iraq to their brutality and terrorist leadership.
More outstanding leadership from Obama’s No. 1 man:
Biden to Zapatero: Hey, thanks for all that help in Iraq
On and on and on the idiocy and naiveté of the Obama administration and their foreign policy team is on display.
There is no one on this team that shows any ability to make sound judgments that deal with some of the most dangerous leaders and terrorist elements known to man.

Diplomatic efforts completely failed
Iran ain’t stopping
Israel need not wait
Now…when Israel and Iran go at it, unless the Israelis notify the US or fly through Iraq instead of Saudi, then the time from the first bombs to the first retaliatory strikes will be less than 30min. That’s not enough time for MSNBC to sort out who shot first, and it’s not enough time to nuance a way for the US to NOT defend her troops/ships as Iranian missiles fly overhead. So…how’s Obama gonna explain to the left that they need to support a war w Iran, a war without end from the Mediterranean to India?
How’s he gonna get re-elected on that platform?
Shoulda taken the easy route and spurred insurrection in Iran. Nope. Gotta be a 2-move chess player instead of a winner.
37 days till we can say, “It happened on Obama’s watch”
scottm on August 4, 2009 at 6:53 PM
Not really. It says:
I have bolded the important clauses. All this amendment does is prohibit someone from being elected. Someone can serve as President an unlimited number of times, so long as they don’t get there by way of being elected as President (more than twice).
Like I said, this a moot point with The Precedent, as he is going to destroy things long before he even gets a chance at a second term.
