I think that we've missed the boat in understanding the uprising in Iran. It's NOT about one candidate winning over another. What it *is* about is the rejection of the pre-selected, Mullah-approved palette of choices in favor of truly free and open elections for Iranian Government.
As always, our amoral President continues to exude weakness both with the meager words he chooses to utter as well as the silence he so often resorts to.
The idea of "Mr Ahmedinajad, tear down this wall!" coming from the mouth of the current American President seems to me impossibly farfetched.
