That’s the level of conviction with which the anti-Bush campaign in the U.S. and world media has managed to achieve in its target audience. The difficulty is that it has raised expectations to a wildly unreasonable level. If anyone thinks the Iranians are going to stop their nuclear weapons program because the Great One is now President he needs his head examined. If anyone thinks the Russians will cease deployment of missiles in Europe or aggression against the Ukraine, well, it’s already too late for that. If anyone thinks the world just became safe they’d better consider just for whom it became safer. It isn’t a comforting thought.
Iran will have their nukes.
Israel is on her own.
Eastern Europe is Russia's B****.
All of this will be ignored by the American people who will be told by media, academia, and popular culture that everything is fine now.
