True, but it fits the caricature they have written for Bush to make him dependant on Sharansky for his ideas.
At first they didn't even extend that courtesy. They were stating Bush citing this book was an attempt to be liked by the intellectual elites. LOL
The reason the President has embraced Sharansky is because he wrote a book he (G.W.) can recommend to others to explain what he is doing. Bush has tried to do this in speeches, but they can't hear. They don't understand. They hold prejudice against this President and only see the caricature. So he's using another likeminded individual to help articulate his message.
I have nothing against Natan and am glad he is out there, but Bush held this vision before his meeting with him after the election. "Journalist's" trying to insinuate otherwise cannot deny forever his own speeches that preceded that meeting.
That is exactly the point I am making.
Rest assured, if nothing happens in the next five years to reverse the Bush Liberty Doctrine and counter that, those articles I posted will be read and cited by historians in the next century.
We have the great privilege to study them now.
