Who's Sorry Now?
Is GWB going to eat his words about how great democracy is? BTW, we think democracy is really great and love living in the good ol USA.
But,
GWB seems to think that democracy is simply elections...and, well, elections can produce those you don't like - like Hamas. Guess the neocons forgot to clue him in on what to do in that case....
So, the update is that Bush blocks Russia's bid for the WTO...let the games begin!
And Putin gives it to Bush. C&L has the best clip from CSPAN today here:
Video-WMP Video-QT
President Bush: ….but it was a good discussion. He’s a strong man. Look, he’s willing to listen, but he also explains to me, he doesn’t want anybody telling him how to run his government. He was elected. And so it was a cordial relationship. But he can speak for himself.
PRESIDENT PUTIN: We certainly would not want to have the same kind of democracy as they have in Iraq, I will tell you quite honestly.
