As thousands of American-Iranian Immigrants take to the streets as a sign of their solidarity, POTUS eats custard and plays golf.
The LA Times reports more than 1,000 protesters were in Westwood on Saturday most wearing green as a show of support for Mir-Hossein Mousavi. Similar protests took place in San Diego.
“We’re here to show solidarity with the people on the streets of Iran,” said Shahin, 31, a computer executive from the San Fernando Valley. “I hope, to people here, this will be another manifest about how the people in Iran are so different than the government
The Washington Times reports that American-Iranian Immigrants protested in most major U.S. cities, including New York, Boston, Chicago, Houston and Washington.
Sheida Jafari was among several hundred American-Iranian who gathered last week in front of a Washington office that houses the Iranian Interests Section to protest what they viewed as rigged election results that gave a landslide victory to incumbent President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad over challenger Mir Hossein Mousavi. “For me, it’s more about showing my solidarity with all my friends in Iran, my family in Iran, everyone who has to live under a regime that prevents them from living their lives freely,” she said.
Where is POTUS while all of this is going on? Well he is eating frozen custard, playing golf and sticking his mug on TV for the 150th day in a row. Nobody loves Obama, like Obama does.
