Uhler:  During the past week, Americans have been treated to the spectacle of America's mainstream news media stumbling over itself while attempting to define the newly elected President of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, for American readers and viewers.
Americans believed Al Qaeda was targeting the United States because we stood for democracy, when, in reality, they hated us because we massively supported oppressive regimes in the Middle East. - This time, with that narrative already established, the work of interpreting the London subway bombings through the Bush worldview is a much simpler matter.
