Meanwhile, in other places I’m seeing idiotic statements like this

I think those Republicans who are complaining about Obama’s approach w.r.t. the Iranian anti-government protests should review their recent history. There were no such protests in Iran during the recent Republican administration. Just maybe, Obama’s respectful but hands-off approach and recent address to the Muslim world might have played a role in the Iranian people’s rising up as they have. Bush’s way didn’t work!

I just don’t even know how to respond to these people any more.
