Like that ever stopped much of anything. Congress spewed eloquent indignation against Saddam for over a decade. He still killed tens of thousands of people. Sometimes it takes military action. And then the same people will criticize you for it.
Which means they are worthless.
And this guy, Kristoff, is one of those "same people"
"Sometimes it takes military action. And then the same people will criticize you for it.

DB, I'm afraid you are right. I appreciate Nicholas Kristoff's efforts here, but I don't think one can blame the "complacency" of the American public for Darfur. For example, are we really going to haul people off to the ICC, an organization we don't even recognize?
If Bush moved against the Sudanese in any effective way, you are right, Kristoff and co. would start yelling "Imperialism, War Mongering, etc."
It is too bad that the left will not recognize Islamofacist terrorism for what it is, in Africa and elsewhere. It is too bad that Bush and co. won't call it by its name. But I don't see ANY of this as being due to inaction or uncaring on the part of the American public.
