Perhaps unaware that it was using a phrase taken from the nightmarish, counter-intuitive language known as Newspeak from George Orwell’s novel 1984, the Iranian regime today complimented President Obama for his restraint – and lowered the boom on Great Britain.

“We thought the world had seen the last of slimy, underhanded British attempts to take over the resources of other nations, be they called color, velvet or just plain coups. But on the other side of the pond, promising signs have appeared in a young leader who is wise beyond his years. … President Barack Hussein Obama, speaking before reporters, maintained that he didn’t wish to interfere in Iran’s presidential election. … We couldn’t be in greater agreement. An absolute ‘double plus good’ to President Obama.”
