Mousavi Arrested for Traffic Violation?

[Blue State Bandit]

Christiane Amanpour asked Ahmadinejad if he would guarantee the safety of Mousavi. Simple question, right?

It is now being reported that up to 100 reform leaders were arrested overnight. Among them, according to tweets coming out of Iran, include the grand daughter of Ayatollah Khomeini, former President and Ruling Council member Razfanjani, and Mousavi. Many are reported to be under house arrest, and no one has seen Mousavi since yesterday.

So what did Ahmadinejad say in response to Amanpour? Nothing but drivel about how, when people leave a soccer game, they may break a few traffic laws, and they will be fined. What the Fu...?!

Wear green today, and find ways to support this best chance at real change in Iran.

1. Scratching my head

Maybe he was saying because Mousavi dared to run against him and win, he will be punished, but not too badly?

2. I just heard that-unreal! You know he's lying through his teeth.

And as that other person on cnn mentioned, if everything was aboveboard, why have text messaging, some twittering, communications been cut off?

3. Last night, #Tehranelections...

signed off with this:

-Holly shit, be back in a second.

-My Father has a truck load of ballot boxes that were to be burned in the back of his truck.

-I have to shut down for a bit, the police are looking for satellites.

They were trying to shut everything down.

I hope Abdul is ok.
