By George He's Got It

AITOOW finds the silence deafening as to the catalyst for the events across the Middle East? That would be one George Walker Bush. The same man who was derided by the same talking heads as naive when he postulated that the region would embrace democracy if they were exposed to it. The same douche bags who are now saying how inevitable it was. Since Afghanistan, we have (in name at least) witnessed the fall of despotism in Iraq, Palestine, Pakistan, and Tunisia. We have also seen it sought by Iran and now Eygpt, Yemen and Jordan (and possibly Lybia and Algieria). That was all caused by little purple fingers and open assemblies shown on TV and the Internet. Roosevelt and Truman defeated totalitarianism in Western Europe and Japan. Reagan did it in Eastern Europe. W did it in the Middle East and North Africa.
