In case anybody missed this, Chris Matthews asked Saxby Chambliss if it might not be a good idea for the U.S. to be seen as meddling in Iran because the CIA overthrew a government there back in the 1950s, and Saxby said:

CHAMBLISS: Well, that election was, what, almost 60 years ago now. The world has changed dramatically since then. And I dare say that you go up to any of those people in Teheran who are protesting in the streets and say, Hey, what about the United States meddling in your election in the `50s, they would shake their heads, like, What in the world are you talking about?

The picture was taken in Iran the day before Saxby said that. The photograph on the left is Mossadegh, the prime minister the CIA overthrew in 1953. On the right is Mousavi.
