Funny, no mention of Clinton or Arafat here.

"...the United States has a nasty habit of embracing foreign dictators when they seem to serve America's interests."

And that is "nasty" in what way?

[Movemout]

The USA has proven to be the most generous giver and rebuilder of nations the world has ever seen. Our reward is to be questioned for our motives at every juncture and opportunity. What if we just served our own self interests like almost every other two bit country in the world? Maybe we should try it out for a couple of decades and see if there is any clamoring for us to return to our generosity.

The New York Times seems to want America to return to the foreign policy fiascos of Jimminy Carter.

How Hypocritical of the NYT to neglect to mention a dictator that they proudly supported throughout the 1930's with their socialist bootlicker, Walter Duranty. His name was Joseph Stalin!!!!

Selective memory I think they call it.

As another poster mentioned, another case of selective memory is the slime laced dictator that visited the slime infested White House of disgraced ex-president B.J. Clinton more than any other world leader Yasser Arabfat.
