Watching the events in Iran and listening to talking heads

In hearing the repugicans mouth off about the election in Iran, Cookie Jill had this to say:

I'm just wondering if the repugicans are so concerned about election integrity, why didn't they care about the lack of integrity in our own elections in 2000 and 2004?
Why are some repugicans pleading guilty to voter registration fraud?
Why is it that citizens of a country that many in the U.S. want to bomb to smithereens seem to want to fight and die for their vote while U.S. citizens could care less about even showing up to the polls?

Just wondering.

Good questions, Jill. Similar questions have crossed my mind the last few days as well.
