Obama: No "Meddling in Iranian Elections"

Obama on Iranian elections:

“It's not productive, given the history of U.S.-Iranian relations, to be seen as meddling -- the U.S. president meddling in Iranian elections,” President Obama said.

OK, so why "meddle" with North Korea's desire to shoot off nukes? Or Iran's desire to get them? Or with any other provocative act around the world? Why bother with pressing countries for democracy or anything else?

In fairness, Obama at least is not being hypocritical. He has his ACORN cronies stuff ballot boxes, so he can't realize chastise Iran for that.
