...Without the freedom to make fun of other ethnicities, I figured, Beck would bomb worse than an Arab in a crowded marketplace. To make sure, I went to one of the 440 movie theaters charging $20 to see a simulcast of Beck's sold-out show from Kansas City, Mo.

Despite widespread dissatisfaction with Ahmadinejad's performance in office, a little more than a week ago, opinion polls showed Ahmadinejad ahead of Mousavi. And opposition supporters were depressed by what at first appeared to be Ahmadinejad's victory in the country's first-ever TV debates, as he accused both of his reformist rivals, Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, of being part...
