I could understand if the reason for the silence was based on oil. That would be a rational response. But these same folks are the ones telling Sebby not to drive is SUV, so the only answer I can think of is an anti-Western (i.e., Britain, US, Australia, etc.) bent.

I could see Teddy K. or dean or whoever being critical of the US for crossing lines that they perceive, and still being silent about Iran.
To be critical of Iran is the President's job, but the Dems could complain about what their own country does, if they feel that things are occurring that shouldn't.
I can criticize my family more quickly than the family at the next table in a restaurant.
