Paying For Hypocrisy

Will the freedom-loving Iranian protestors pay with their lives because of Obama's hypocrisy?

God Forbid.

But every day Obama doesn't speak out, he shames us all.

Rich Lowry has a column here with some interesting observations including this bit...
Obama’s timidity speaks to a guilty conscience. At some level, he buys the post-colonial critique of the West as the root of the developing world’s troubles, and thinks we lack the moral standing to judge non-Western governments that resent and envy us. Obama is perfectly capable of launching moralistic broadsides — just at his own country, especially under his predecessor. Who are we to condemn the abuse of peaceful demonstrators when we waterboarded three terrorists?
