Schizo NYT Has One Constant on Mid-East Democracy: Bush Always Wrong

OK, class, someone tell us: what's been the attitude of the New York Times and the elite media at large toward democracy-building in Iraq?

What's that, Johnny? That it was naive for George Bush to imagine that democracy was attainable in a Muslim country riven by religious and ethnic factions? Correct.

OK, then, who'd like to predict the Times's reaction to Pres. Bush's measured response to the curtailing of democracy in Pakistan by Pervez Musharraf, perhaps our most important ally in the region in the war against terrorism?

What's that, Janie? Pakistan being another Muslim country riven by religious and ethnic factions, George Bush has adopted the appropriately pragmatic course? Story Continues Below Ad ↓

Wrong!

The readers of the NYT don’t even realize that they are being manipulated.

Liberals are so bereft of ideas and ways to solve problems. Anyone can be against something, however it takes integrity, honesty and and character to come up with workable solutions. They have spent the last eight years hating Bush.
Fires, floods, hurricanes, and anything that happens that is bad in the entire world is Bush’s fault.
It has been reasonably successful until they have to run for office.
Hilary has to mention Bush 25 times in a debate. However she has no answers to what she would do.
