The right seem to be tone deaf when it comes to the President's stance on Iran.
Take Melanie Phillips of the Spectator for instance.




"What a disgrace that this man is leader of the free world; and at such a point in history. If he had put America stoutly behind the protesters and championed them against the regime, by now they might have toppled it. There are signs today that even the fawning American media is appalled."

1. Yup, just like George Bush's strong words on Iran
helped to topple that regime. Oops, you mean Bush's strong words enabled the election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in the first place?

3. Considering they are tone deaf on every other topic of importance...
... this does not surprise me in the least.
