IRAN OKAYS INSPECTORS FOR "SECRET" PLANT - AT 6:33 P.M. ET:  Iran announced that UN inspectors may visit the "secret" nuclear plant disclosed by Obama yesterday.

Big deal.  Of course the inspectors may visit.  Once the plant's existence was outed, the Iranians really had no choice.  Charles Krauthammer predicted this decision last night.  What will the inspectors find?  Whatever the Iranians haven't already hidden.

The White House said:

The White House responded to the development by urging Iran's complete and immediate cooperation with the IAEA. "After hiding this site from the international community for years, full transparency is essential, and it is time for Iran to play by the rules like everyone else," White House spokesman Tommy Vietor said.

COMMENT:  Play by the rules?  Is the White House serious?  Of course it is.  To the Obama crowd, this is no different from a Harvard football game.  We have rules.  We have procedures.  You show your ticket to the guy at the gate.  It's as simple as that.

Except that nuclear devices don't go off during Harvard football games.
