OBAMA DISAPPOINTS WHEN HE APPLIES ECONOMIC SANCTIONS AGAINST PEOPLE OF IRAN

What a disappointment Obama is!  What a waste of a Democratic presidency!

Here are my complaints today:

1.  Obama, stop the economic sanctions against Iran and its 77 million people.  These are just a form of economic warfare against ordinary Iranians in Tehran and throughout the country.  I thought democratic principles had been settled at Nuremberg:  a country may not inflict "collective punishment" upon its "enemy."  One nation may not target the population and citizenry of another either by dropping bombs or applying economic sanctions.

2.  Mr. Obama, Hugo Chavez of Venezuela dares to imply without evidence that his cancer, and that of Lula da Silva of Brazil and Cristina Fernandez of Argentina, is the result of some bizarre American plot.  Perhaps Chavez makes this ridiculous claim because you, Mr. President, have totally ignored Latin America, its problems and its leaders.  Have you, Mr. Obama, sent anyone of the above leaders a get-well card or any other sign of your personal concern over their life-threatening illnesses?  I doubt it, and I would be most pleased if any of my readers would tell me otherwise.
