The man's arrogance and narcissism knows no bounds:
We are excited, uh, to see, uh, what appears to be a ro-robust debate taking place in Iran.And obviously after the speech that I, uh, made in Cairo we tried to send a clear message that we think there is the possibility of change, uhhh, aaaand -- ehhh, yuh-- oh -- Ultimately the election is for the Iranians to decide, uh, but, uh, just a-as has been true in Lebanon, what's, uh -- can be true in Iran as well is that you're seeing people looking at new possibilities. And, uh, whoever, uh, ends up winning, uh, the election in Iran, uh, the fact that there's been a robust debate hopefully will help, uh, advance our ability to engage them in new ways.

It all sounds good (the sentiment, not the clearly teleprompter-free delivery).
Right up until they start killing supporters of the reform candidate, of course.

Dang. And people still believe we willingly elected this guy. Nothing like a POTUS so in touch with a political climate of riots and bloodshed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8102007.stm Uh...

Sadly, no matter who was on the Iranian ballot, they're all bad to differing degrees. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't Mousavi the guy who jump started their nuclear program? Or do I have him confused with someone else?
