George Will: "The president is being roundly criticized for insufficient, rhetorical support for what's going on over there. It seems to me foolish criticism. The people on the streets know full well what the American attitude toward the regime is. And they don't need that reinforced."
Peggy Noonan: "To insist the American president, in the first days of the rebellion, insert the American government into the drama was shortsighted and mischievous. The ayatollahs were only too eager to demonize the demonstrators as mindless lackeys of the Great Satan Cowboy Uncle Sam, or whatever they call us this week. John McCain and others went quite crazy insisting President Obama declare whose side America was on, as if the world doesn't know whose side America is on."
I... I... agree with George Will and Peggy Noonan.

Oh Crap they are starting to think and use rational dialog. Let's just hope the R politicians don't do the same
It does make one wonder if somebody is playing tricks when conservatives start using common sense.
Yeah, I know. It's one of those weird moments...
