I've Been Thinking:

Earlier this week the supreme court of Iran forbade their president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, from visiting the prison where one of his assistants is being held for insulting the Supreme Leader the Grand Ayatollah Khamenei.

And now, the head of the judiciary has publicly chastised Ahmadinejad for even thinking about visiting the prison and for taking his desire to go public.

The judiciary went public saying that the president does not respect or understand the separation of powers. They said that it is unfitting and wrong for the president to go to the prison.

What do we learn from this? We learn that Ahmadinejad is once again getting beaten back from his attempt to totally control the system and run over governmental bureaucracy and other powers in Iran.

We saw Ahmadinejad attack and then beaten back by the parliament and now we are seeing it with the judiciary. These are important lessons that do not bode well for the future of Ahmadinejad as president of Iran.
