It was comforting to see the administration finally take an affirmative stand against the abuses of the Iranian government, thanks in large part to constant prompting by the more enlightened. However, to hear the positive expressions and notes of satisfactory glee offered by those same enlightened ones, one would think that the president had undergone some manner, degree of nationalistic conversion. I didn't see that. All I saw was the child finally saying the word "da da" after being prompted with constant and repetitive urging. Then, seeing the proud father jumping up and down with notes of positive expressions and satisfactory glee for hearing his son repeat the magic word.
