Iran

I'm pretty torn up about what's going on in Iran- the government brazenly stealing an election, not even really trying to cover it up, and it's not especially certain how things are going to end up. Check out Totten and Sullivan for good takes, including Farsi-speaking people on the ground.

You know what's awful? We have three 24-hour cable channels in this country, and not only do none of them have anyone in Iran, but none of them were even covering the story over the weekend! It's probably the most intriguing story of the year, and they're talking about Palin vs. Letterman, and bullshit like that?
