Behind the Curtain.

Many have called for the President to employ additional rhetoric against the Ahmadinejad regime for its theft of the Iranian presidential election. Perhaps it will be useful. The real action, however, will occur behind the scenes, something like the actions of the Reagan Administration to shred the Iron Curtain and push the Soviet Union into the ditch.

One can only hope that neither ideology nor diffidence will prevent President Obama from acting during this decisive moment.
