Obama, Brown and Sarkozy paraded to the podium Friday to denounce Iran over the newly discovered or newly revealed installation that Iran is using to enrich uranium. The LAT says that Obama has had it up to here with Iran and will no longer negotiate but instead will enforce sanctions against Iran with European, Russian and Chinese help.
Which raises the question: Why is Obama so slow? Apparently the Bush administration knew about this secret installation. The Bush administration seemed to understand what kind of regime it was dealing with in Iran. Apparently it had no false hope, no false beliefs. But Obama always seems to assume that whatever the Bush administration did must have been wrong. It seems pretty stupid. Why not pick up where Bush left off instead of starting off all over from scratch? Fear of granting Bush any credit probably explains it.
