George W. Bush's Vision For a Democratic Middle East Is Coming True
Real American:
Has anyone been paying attention to what is happening in Lebanon? If you don't know, Lebanon is a small Arab country that is controlled by Syria. The Syrian army occupies the country and they oppress and torture the Lebanese populaion. A few weeks ago, a former prime minister of Lebanon was assasinated by Syria. Well, the people of Lebanon have apparently had enough because since then they have taken to the streets to protest the Syrian presence and have called for independence and freedom. Those kind of protests have been revolutionary in that part of the world and would have been unthinkable just years ago. And today the pro Syrian politicians in Lebanon have resigned in response to the dramatic public pressure, giving the Lebanese people a triumphant victory.
The reason that I bring this up is because the American neo-conservative vision is becoming reality before our eyes. The radical democratic transformation of the Middle East has begun. Democracy and freedom are contagious, and what the US has accomplished in Iraq and Afghanistan cannot be contained by borders. What happened in Lebanon, the successful elections in Iraq and Afganistan, local elections recently held in Saudi Arabia, Israel and the Palestinians finally working for peace, Libya giving up its nuclear weapons program, etc.......these are all the products of President Bush's grand vision for the Middle East. When it is all said and done, the neoconservatives are going to be proven to be right and all the liberals, the Europeans, and anyone else who doubted the US will have egg on their face again (just like when they doubted President Reagan and the arms build up that ultimately led to the end of the cold war. As history shows us, liberals are always wrong when it comes to foreign policy. Iraq will be no different.)

LOL. Except you forgot about the liberals that said there were no WMD in Iraq. You forgot about the liberals that said Bush was crazy to suggest Saddam had ties to al-queda. And apparently the liberal stance on the vietnamese war completely eludes you.
You shuold really learn to apologzie every now and then for these absurd statements.
You were the guy who called the Iraq elections the first democratic election in the middle east. I called you on it, and you just ran away.
Are you practicing for a career as a GOP rhetorician?
