The sentiments of President Bush are fine, and his sincerity was transparent. But in speaking about bringing liberty to the rest of the world, he could have gone at it more platonically: but this would have required him to corral his enthusiasm for liberty everywhere with appropriately moderate rhetoric.

That's the problem with President Bush. He just can't corral that pesky old enthusiasm for liberty with............using best Bill Buckley imitation..........appropriately MODerate rhetoric.

Too bad, Mr. Buckley. I admire you greatly, but sometimes being moderate isn't the right thing to do.
