Conservativeland: K-Lo’s Folly

National Review’s Kathryn Jean Lopez is upset that Ahmadinejad was able to discuss us having secret prisons. Of course, she blames the media for uncovering the horrible practice and not, you know, our leadership for violating our own moral compass. Ahmadinejad wouldn’t have these things to talk about if Bush didn’t give him so much material. If you’re a religious dictator, you’re going to take all the raw material you can get.

    Ahmadinejad isn’t a dictator, he is elected. And he’s about as popular in Iran as Bush is here and probably won’t last another term. … Assuming America doesn’t attack him, (either militarily or through rhetoric).

    He’s also not a dictator because he doesn’t have the power to, you know, dictate. The Iranian constitution reserves only the powers to name ambassadors and confer honors to the President. Everything else goes to the Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Ahmendijad is a glorified spokesman without the actual power of Khamenei’s shoeshine boy.

    K-Lo just wrote that there is no better human rights advocate than Dubya and thought he should be nominated for Secretary General. In case you were wondering just how seriously to take her opinion about anything.
