Re: Fit to Be Tied   [Andy McCarthy]

Derb, I've noticed that President Obama frequently forgoes the necktie — lately, even in public appearances. That reminded me — I have no idea why — that the Iranian regime has shunned the necktie ever since Khomeini pronounced it a symbol of Western decadence. I've always assumed that's why Michael Ledeen is often pictured wearing a big, bold tie — you know, as a signal to the other conspirators.
