24 Jun 2009 Iran Quick Hits

Husband David says Obama’s message to the Iranian government boils down to: What you’re doing is unacceptable and it’s none of our business.

Michael Barone of the Washington Examiner sees in the President’s Iran stance a bit of an adolescent still growing up: “There is a tendency for newly installed presidents, like adolescents suddenly liberated from adult supervision, to do the exact opposite of what their predecessors did. Presidents of both parties indulge in this behavior, though Democrats who campaign as candidates of hope and change are more likely to do so.”

I assume that last sentence is a bit tongue-in-cheek.
