Secretary of State Hillary Clinton issued this statement in response to the sentencing of Roxana Saberi to 8 years for allegedly spying:
“I am deeply disappointed by the reported sentencing of Roxana Saberi by the Iranian judiciary… we will continue to vigorously raise our concerns to the Iranian government.”
Deeply disappointed? When my cereal gets soggy I get deeply disappointed… not when journalists are imprisoned by rogue nations developing nuclear weapons.
I remember a time when an American president stood up to an evil empire and boldly commanded a dictator:
“Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!“
Two years later, the wall came down… That’s change I can believe in.
