And a special award to the first Sunday Morning Talk Show host or guest who properly provides credit for this recent outbreak of democracy throughout the muslim Middle East; George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.
Despite all of Barack Obama's attempts to stifle dissent in Iran when it happened last year, the human spirit is coming through in other countries and not even Obama can ignore it. It looks like Obama is just waiting for the right moment to jump in and take credit for what the grown-ups in the previous administration did.
I will reserve judgment as to how much of this has to do with democracy versus a sinister hand behind what is happening, i.e., the MB. These "revolutions" are just in their nascent stages. It will take a while to play out and see what forces emerge from the chaos, which, unlike in Iraq, we have very little influence to control. What replaces Ghadaffi, Mubarak, etc. may be far worse for our national interests.
