His opponent -- and moved Sunday eight. Has lodged a complaint that the election was -- well Ayatollah Ali -- carrying supreme leader has ordered investigation into allegations of fraud you know how that'll go meantime tens of thousands of Iranians took to the streets there they are where they were met with much violence a pro government militia reportedly opened fire on the crowd killing at least one person. In the US President Obama -- it's tough to -- to determine its own leaders. But he also says he's troubled by the situation in Iran. And that it would be wrong to stay silent that's what I call palsy Obama did a job for his part is paying little attention I believe we have video. -- you -- that's out there today. Okay Lauren W for some of these results were announced before the ballot boxes had even been opened is there any way this thing wasn't --"

" I doubt that I do and I mean what better way to show the rest of the world that you -- human rights violations under control an opening fire on your own people yeah you know I'm Ahmadinejad compared. These protests these fervent protests to the passions after a soccer game but I you know I've never seen -- British military opened fire on on people -- a simulated game --"

" Say this is a bit different yes I think you're right by the -- this is no doubt a difficult situation for everyone involved. Except for bill how do you think America should respond to -- you pick it and -- financially. You know. Do you want -- it -- that's let me."

" He talks both serious issue now. In a very funny way you know what this is a serious issue and only -- about is -- video that we saw somebody threw an issue yeah I -- you -- I was."

" It was a big crowd who's he gonna hit it I had no idea questioned by."

" You know the good news is that there were courageous people there are willing to sacrifice. Their own reputation and life perhaps job that in order to say no to a regime that is ticking away as corn mentioned human rights. Yeah and that's good news and when you look at humanities the story of humanity and we need heroic people and I ran."

" And desperately needs still pay the price that they -- history. Jesse what's the problem here that they rigged the election to well I mean shouldn't it made a little closer -- waited a few days before -- They calculated the results slant the main problem is is that if you look at it it says that -- Maine and John won by a 11180%. Yeah. I don't know about that nobody is going to vote for a guy who -- that much like jacobs' -- now compared. Giuliani and I think the main premise is that he's the one he's telling us that everything was fair you know who this guy thinks that the Holocaust was a hoax I generally have dismiss everything they say policy was people who put the Holocaust in the same category -- big -- yeah. Think that's a pretty good philosophy that have general yeah. Yeah and I really I guess I wouldn't be I wouldn't be a good irishman if I didn't mention that bloody Sunday the British did -- a soccer game no TD two link that you. Bill let me ask you question treading where you're sure many Iranians -- to the street armed with little more than -- tweaks. Would we know half of what's going on in this country if it were not for Twitter this is why I. Have some optimism and what is bad."

" Transpire because the government is not enough to get through the FaceBook they got rid of all pretty much every so he met organized that you were even able to get rid of the actual -- involvement phones but hey Fred got a winner Manhattan following -- I got one right here. All this from our man. OMG a protest it just may still have kept alive today. I way to the GA at this level of -- it -- FAO Clinton and battery and even."

" That's what's said he Twitter this is what Twitter. More because I'm -- and we -- Business dealings it's a connection to all these people they're telling you what's going on the however it is hard to tell what is real what is not real that was real -- only -- Let me bring Mike Baker back into the conversation for no other reason just in his stare -- and yes it's a marvelous Erica. Data Moussaoui was ahead about -- then lost by a landslide how many people. How could he -- this kind of corruption to make it work. 4047. At."

" Have to be in on it and then about another 120 you have to actually be -- willing to to say they were -- If I think you're absolutely right thank -- And they knew this when they -- what it is is is perfect for international chaos and violent protest. Thank that was a marketing campaign and yeah yeah that's what they're."

" Let me ask you I'm okay. How should the United States has -- many. Maybe how should a -- is at its response was extremely -- CYC. Shouldn't be condemning this crackdown right now."

" Well you know I actually did -- administration is. In all reality probably doing what they need. I'd be doing which is is waiting to see what happens I mean there is had a distinct possibility Ahmadinejad and you didn't have yet the cities like Ahmadinejad and suddenly he can hop on -- It's -- hey you know there's a Jesse Jackson won the election yes rod obviously there was some you know some odds shenanigans going on. At the polling but it may not have enough to turn the tide of this to the administration is essentially doing what they need to -- anybody know they couldn't. I get a little bit further out there in terms of urging the government to reinstate. Texting me and the Internet they could be a little bit more forceful in saying you know we do we condemned the violence associated with the protests and by the way we -- The -- days authorities there to carry out the investigation that the Ayatollah the supreme leader has asked for so that there's certain things that can be doing but on a on on sort of the strategic front regarding alchemy election. There and they pretty much have to sit on the fence and wait to see because nobody knows where this is going."

" That's and that's -- that's an excellent point you're right to know but I want to ask -- imagine Khomeni launching an investigation. Is any reason to believe that he'll actually do justice I mean he likes armadillo -- far more than he likes the other guys."

" So would you say if there's a chance yeah. Actually dvd cleric led guardian council that runs this may not have an open and transparent investigation into election -- I've taken that. I don't know about this -- those cynical I got yeah."

" It's cynical."

" Always ticket on -- clear and it's. Very uncomfortable for."

" Hey hey clerics we we all have so much in common they didn't know that why don't you controlling this country why can't sit here."

" They're not -- can -- last question in my. If this other guy had one and what do you think easier to deal with -- in terms of like over the nuclear program there's other and other things we have problems like Israel."

" United's and that's actually very quick and I was thinking what -- you along the lines of if we could have Photoshop the big beard on father Jonathan Aiken. -- It's all relative soundscape. You know he dislikes us less than Ahmadinejad in reality what's happening is they're voting for for president president is is lesser office in Iran if it it doesn't control national or international foreign policy. So in reality. You know that the person is there at the I think choosing -- the backing -- of the clerics that actually run the show."

" Men and I will think what we'll see that data to be doing the halftime report for us I am yet you are those who don't go anywhere okay -- yeah you I think the bottom line. It's great to see Obama standing up for the -- of Iran. Look at -- the power by -- anti bush with bush -- what is he now is somewhat muted response to the Iran situation might be telling you something. But I'm sure -- more ugliness that -- probably move on the foul smelling fruit bat as president until -- get to Obama to decide whether his own clenched fist still makes sense. My prediction they'll vote present."
