Something tells me this Axis of Evil Leader wouldn’t have gone to all this trouble if W was still our President:
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said an Iranian-American journalist jailed for spying must have her legal right to defend herself.
The request came in a letter from his office to Tehran’s prosecutor, state media reported, a day after Roxana Saberi was jailed for eight years.
This prosecutor obviously didn’t get the memo that times have changed, and upsetting the Great Satan is not the default position in Iranian politics anymore, even among the hardliners. A public smackdown by President Ahmadinejad of this overzealous prosecutor is a clear sign that Obama’s diplomatic charm offensive is making an impact.
