Find answers to your legal question.





Not a single Iranian diplomat accepted Obama's invitation?

to celebrate our freedom on July 4th. So now the news says we have rescinded our invitation. Is this a way of saving face, since none of them planned on coming anyway?? Would it have been to embarrasing if Obama was at the big party & his special guests didn't show up?

Gosh you guys did it again! Great answers all. Of course most of you are my own contacts/friends so what could I have expected? I think I got one Liberal to answer.. oh well... Thanks guys!

Iran is having a meltdown. Where on Earth have you been? Do you really think they would head out to a BBQ?!


People, let's have a little common sense.

obama has iran on the defensive. his speech in egypt, his invitations...the reaction of the iranian people...


Wayner
No - the invitation was rescinded because of the Iranian crackdown on the protesters.

They probably didn't accept because of all the pork products common at an American BBQ.

February is right. I can't imagine any embassy staffer anywhere would go to a pool party while there country was possibly self destructing.

I do not know why our Potentate would expext anyone from there to attend and rescinding the invitation was only a formality as no one has ever accepted an invitation for that in the past and yes there have been some.

“As you all know many weeks ago the administration extended an invitation to celebrate the freedom that this country enjoys. not surprisingly based on what we see in Tehran, no one has RSVP’d,” said White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.
“Understand that July 4th allows us to celebrate the freedom and liberty that we enjoy. I don’t think it’s surprising that no one has signed up to come given the events of the last few days.

I'm SOOOO shocked! Those guys had no intention of helping us celebrate our freedom & independence from a tyrannical government. Besides, it's our party. How can any country that doesn't enjoy freedom even understand what we have? <*)))><

I'm with Rayne Storm. Obama , himself is one big embarrassment.He cant manage a lemmon aid stand let alone a country

The sad part is a few days ago (the same day he finally made a strong statement against Iran's treatment of the protesters) Obama was asked if the invitation was still open and he said it was still up the the Iranians on whether to accept it or not. He even said it twice. But after he caught some flop that afternoon for saying that the very next morning the White House released a statement saying the offer was rescinded. Why did Obama have to wait till the next day instead of showing he had a pair the day before by saying they were not welcome instead of trying to play Mr. nice guy by saying it was up to the Iranians? Plus he had to have a White House staff member do it for him instead of owing up to it himself. And Liberals can't figure out why so many people think Obama lacks a spine.

I whole heartedly agree with your assessment of the now ABC state run news, and Obama affiliates. They are trying to make Obama look good precisely because of what you’ve said, “to save face”.


This is an indicator that the news room no longer functions independently as it should from politics. They couldn’t be more blatantly obvious now. The peddle is off the rose.

Thank God!! At least for once these infidels showed some sense - An infinity more than that charlatan, that pretender that's illegally propping his butt up in OUR White House right now! Oh wait! We're talking about Obama here... shut my mouth...lmao! This type of thing is par for the course for this madman!

The Iranians don't give a rats as@ in he!l about any holiday celebrating America's Independence, & Obama was a flat-out fool for extending the invitation in the 1st place. Of course the Iranians wouldn't have been caught dead at such a thing... I'm still trying to visualize what the Iranians must have thought when the nutcase extended such an invitation in the 1st place!

What additional fodder he's given all of them in furthering their campaign against us -- In this case they'd be correct in at least calling ONE person in this country ALL the horrible names they usually do - Which ALL come down to saying we're ALL evil, worthless, insane, no-good pieces of dun taking up space where good men & women could stand on earth!

The ONLY thing these further STUPID Press releases could be doing is trying to take a little of the furious heat off Obama's insane, heartless as far as the American People are concerned, invitation to these Enemies of OURS in the 1st Place! But, it's NOT going to work!
It's only succeeded in bringing more attention to his invitation!

To me, all it's done is reminded me of a rotten spoiled brat, who thought he could be the big kid on the block, & show all the other kids in town that he was so cool, so well-liked by everybody that he could do what nobody else could. That he would be able to show all those doubters in America, & the world, that those stand-offish kids that wouldn't let any other kids play w/their toys ever, would gladly come over to "His" house, & picnic & play w/him!

He made a mockery out of America & EVERY TRUE American Citizen, of which we know he ISN'T ONE! By bowing when the Leader of a World Power NEVER BOWS; especially to a lowly Saudi Prince! He & his wife, shamed us in their stupidity of Royal Protocol! He's uncouth; unSKILLED, unEverything!


Homeless in Phoenix
They just don't want to be in town when North Korea unleashes its "fire shower of nuclear retaliation"!

Obama is your typical pansy lib who never figured out how to deal with the bullies in the school yard at recess. He always thought if he could just talk to them nice they wouldn't hurt him; but everytime he approached them he was beaten senseless.....and he kept going back for more!

Don't worry about it. Blood is thicker than water, and this little tiff will all blow over and Obama and his Muslim brothers will be planning how to destroy democracy again by Labor Day.

I think that the Iranian government is afraid that our stupid congress is going to pass the 'Cap and Trade" bill and they don't want to pay the huge added costs to refuel their planes.

Neither Korea or Iran need to worry about blowing the US into oblivion, Obama will tax us into oblivion and then we will all die while waiting to see a doctor.
