Liberal freedom fighters (an obvious oxymoron as we shall see), led by supreme commander Obama, refrain from condemning the Iranian mullah regime and distinguishing good from evil in this clash between totalitarianism and dissent because they are not certain how this "vigorous debate" will all "play out." Here's a clue, folks: The brutalization of the protestors will continue to escalate until the dissent will be bloodily put down. And those brave, daring Iranians who have put their lives on the line will wonder in sad, dispirited amazement how the world's leading free nations abandoned them to the ravages of totalitarianism.
Moral relativists like Stephen Dick cower behind their supreme commander and support his every nuanced move. Writes Mr. Dick, "In the US, President Obama has taken a measured approach. He has questioned the results of the election but not separated the protestors and the mullahs into good and evil... Last week, the Republicans in the House offered up a useless resolution to back the Iranian protestors, but it served as a political thumb in the eye to Obama who wants to open up a dialogue with Tehran." (Kokomo Tribune, 6/25/09, p. A4) Later in his article, Mr. Dick goes on to make the typical liberal rant that this all America's fault anyway because we helped Mohammad Reza Pahlavi ascend to power in 1953 - all for nasty oil, of course. The lack of logic by those like Mr. Dick amazes me: Today's events in Iran are "America's fault," but we dare not intervene because they are Iran's problems, not ours.
This president, along with his adoring minions, is determined to ally himself with brutal totalitarian regimes and turn his back on allies and devoted freedom fighters. In just as confusing, tenuous, threatening times, an oppressed people rose up against their oppressors. The leader of the free world then did not fail them. Polish leader Lech Walesa writes, "When talking about Ronald Reagan, I have to be personal. We in Poland took him so personally. Why? Because we owe him our liberty. This can't be said often enough by people who lived under oppression for half a century, until communism fell in 1989." (Freedom Eden) He also said, "The Polish people, hungry for justice, preferred 'cowboys' over Communists."
Mr. Obama certainly does not have to worry about being mistaken for a "cowboy" as he stands on the sidelines waiting for it all to "play out."

(BTW, google has some of the lamest images of the Iranian protests imagineable. Amazing.)
