The begging forgiveness is partly ceremonial, as people who go to hadj are supposed to seek forgiveness before going to god's pilgrimage, but he sounded as if he aknowledged his guilt.  </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4378687839405064553&postID=2432510674061515476">Anyways, he is in political trouble. The coallition of reformists against him is strengthening (Hashemi and Khatami on the same side). This can potentially suffocate Ahmadinejad's vote. </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/EF4AD16F-397B-4AA0-AEBF-19114C43D424/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
