“The arc of the moral universe” is a brilliant quote, but not terribly helpful here. It means good will suffer for a long time, but will eventually prevail.

“That statement, As I said in Cairo communicates to you Obamas mentality. What does Cairo have to do with Tehran?”
I guess to Obama all Muslims look the same...(eye roll)

He didn’t even say it himself. It was a stinking press release. Mike Immanuel stood outside the white tent and read it on Fox taking care to read every word, (which he stressed,) as written.
I can’t stand it.

1) This would’ve been OK (sort of) had he immediately released this statement. As it is, it’s weak, and he’s about a week late. That makes it totally useless and pointless.
2) Again, he tries to interject himself as some kind of final authority on How The World Should Work. Narcissism at its finest, yet again.
3) As someone else pointed out (and I think it’s worth repeating), mullahs and Persians don’t give a flying you-know-what about MLK. I’d be surprised if any of them know who he is. This seems to be written for an AMERICAN audience, as a sort of, “See? See? I care! I really kinda sorta do!”
4) This is such an amazing display of weakness. If we can see it, you can bet your @$$ that every tinpot dictator on Earth sees it, too. And that’s REALLY bad.

I appreciate the replies and I’d love to discuss this with you. Problem is, I have to go out. (Hmmm, not really a problem, but you know what I mean... ;-))
A’ll be baak!

To: The Klingon
Ah, another failure in moral clarity by the master of “nuance.”
Why should a POTUS need to invoke that ephemeral fraud of liberal foreign policy, the “international community,” unless he's afraid of making a statement that could be interpreted as unequivocal?
He needn't worry. The foolish false pretenses have been preserved and the cowardly fence-stradling continues for all to see.

If the Iranian revolution succeeds, it will be despite Obama, not because of him. If it succeeds, of course, he will take full credit He's voting "present" until he sees how events turn out. Anything good resulting from the brave dissidents Obama will say came as a result of his Cairo speech. He is unbelievable!

Response from “ConNews” on Twitter:
“Obama has transcended color because when he speaks he comes across as yellow and I see red.”
LOL!

You have to love the State-run Media mantra after Obama's so-called statement:
Our president has had too much on his plate...bla, bla, bla..."

“He didnt even say it himself.”
The Mullahs can interpret that as hands-off from America.
I elsewhere posted comments from them showing confusion about Obama’s mixed messages and “respect.”

Perhaps the Obamination’s words word carry a better message if he practiced what he preached.
He needs to show Iran that he can govern without coercion and quit ramming new spending down our throats in constant crisis mode.

One has to wonder what Obama statement he will make when the Tea Parties get into full swing on July 4:
"As I said in Cairo..."

Better late then never? Obama shows once again that he is an empty suit.
Instead of quoting MLK, he should have quoted Reagan.
