9. Can we please drop the "Dictator" canard?
I have no sympathy for Ahmadinejad, but he was elected. He is the president of a foreign nation, just because Americans feel threatened or don't like a foreign leader, does not mean that he automatically becomes a "Dictator."

Shit like this just furthers America's ignorance and hypocrisy.

PS. Before some one goes out of the way building a straw man claiming I am a fan of Ahmadinejad because I pointed out he is an elected leader, please don't.
