4. dude- where go you get off calling him elitist? no one has done more to join Americans with
the rest of the world than he has in the last eight+ years... AT LEAST far, far more than the prior administration.

2. he is right
i don't think he is defending it. he is saying that the way they think is similar to the way christian fundamentalists think. "family values" is what they call it. he is just pointing out that it is similar.

3. He is absolutely correct about many many things in just THIS segment.
I waited to see "Rick Steve's Iran" on PBS and I was NOT disappointed in the least.

Kicked and highly recommended.

5. I'm in favor of peace with Iran.
I may not agree with them, but I am not afraid of them. It's their country. They can do want they want.
