He's probably pissed off that akmanutjob is distracting people from his 5-year plan to poof capitalism. Now, if events swing so that Israel is somehow strengthened, he might have to stop memorizing Alinsky's writings for a few minutes to dispatch some sychophants to gum up the works. Otherwise, he wants things to get back to normal in Iran so he can concentrate on punishing a country he really hates. Hey, his parents and grandparents are dead......why should yours be allowed to consume resources he could put to better use buying more power.

Granted, I don't think Mousavi is all that better (in terms of rhetoric or eventual destruction of Israel ideology), but it's pretty amazing to see THAT MANY Iranians come out and stand up for their right to be heard. MAJOR props to all the women.

But, Obama’s Cairo speech definitely empowered Imanutjob. I hope that Obama's policies haven't permanently damaged the Bush Admin./Military effort in the ME.

It brought some relief to my much troubled mind to see such a comprehensive and up-to-date piece out of an MSM source. One could only speculate how this might have played if Obama's Cairo speech had reflected one more common of President Bush. On the one hand, he could've gotten his greatest wish: a chance to claim his words had inspired change in the Middle East; yet on the other, his arrogance in having done so may have drawn a terrible politicization and stymied international focus on the matter. In essence, the American President's poor standards have publicly exposed and separated the government from its people, enabling a grassroots or pure essence in it all. It strikes a irony chord in me because I know it's all exactly the opposite of what he wants. Great points Professor, and thank you for linking that article.

I agree with this editorialist: We have to stand up for democracy as a principle in Iran, but we also have to prepare for all the unknown contingencies surrounding what appears to be a burgeoning revolution. One thing is for sure; I am proud of Bush's foreign policy legacy, because I doubt that any of this would be happening if not for the pressure of two republics on either side of Iran, and a regime isolated by Bush's tough policy positions.

Bam's slipping fast. 5 percentage points against him since Iran start. His policies are failing and he might not get anymore of the "big ones." Breaking the law everyday, firing IG's, his own administration isn't holding the line, and many of his congressional allies are embattled in scandal. If we lose SCOTUS to Sotomayor, many wonder what element of our constitution is left to protect us? All of it is still there because these truths are greater than any false government! Iran is showing us all how this is done. Gogo peaceful Tea Party 2.0!! Oh, and have faith in the fact also that our (conservative) military would never serve a dictator! “And, yes, it could happen here.”
