… only he really didn’t.
And if he did, show me because I can’t see it.
From the Monday following the elections, to yesterday’s comments in his news conference, President Obama has railed against the vicious treatment protesters in Iran have received at the hands of the Basiji.
He has stopped short of calling the results of the elections illegitimate; however, is that really the place of our President? The last one to say something he wasn’t absolutely sure about ended up getting us involved in two wars, tanking our economy, and generally ransacking our international prestige in the process, so much so that Obama is still working hard to right the ship.
Barack Obama spoke initially in measured tones on the issue. Yesterday he was a bit more forceful in his rhetoric…
Perhaps that change in timbre is what is meant by a “change in tactic.”
But I still don’t see it.
