Amongst all the tweets emanating from Iran during the recent post-election uprising, my favorite was one decrying Ahmadinejad as “Iran’s George W. Bush” (this remark becoming a headline in Newsweek). Indeed: both are beady-eyed, willfully ignorant and belligerent. I predict Iran will end up in the same sorry shape after 8 years of Ahmadinejad as the US has after 8 years of stunningly incompetent rule by W. My sympathies to the people of Iran.
