Khamenei Swore and I Congaed

3 Aug, 2009 | Australian Values, Cultural Values, Democracy, Religious Values, Values

  

Ayatollah Khamenei declared the result of the Iranian election today:

“ The Iranian people have voted in favour of a fight against arrogance,” screamed the criminally-insane Ayatollah arrogantly, “and to confront destitution and spread justice,” the hate-filled theocrat sneered. “And that is why I am overturning the vote and declaring the election of the truly awful apostate, Ahmedinajad, void,” scowled the religious sociopath.

We can dream, can’t we?
