Team USA kicked Iran’s ass in the basketball world championships. The final score was the United States 88, Iran 51.
But on the political correctness scoreboard the score was Iran 1, USA 0 because the Team USA dancers were required to wear long pants in what was called a “nod to Muslim law.”
The Associated Press uncovered the cover-up:
[In] a nod to the Iranian supporters in Istanbul — which included minister of sports Ali Saeedlou earlier in the tournament — dancers were ordered to cover up for their performances during the game. Islam prohibits women from exposing their skin in public, and Iranian officials had turned their backs when the dancers performed in earlier games.
The dancers wore long pants Wednesday.
This, of course, is in sharp contrast to the way the Obama administration normally drops its pants for the Iranians.
