We have today what we did not have yesterday: a lineup of countries that are indeed "making it" with regard to economic reforms, evolutionary democracy and cultural gradualism. On the list are Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Tunisia, Oman, Bahrain and several Eastern European countries. But not one of these has developed through the "shock" therapy our great leaders foresee with such blithe (and ignorant) assurance for Iraq.

Japan.

Next question?

I guess you just drilled Georgie's logic, Bill. That's going to leave a mark. ;-)

I reviewed some of her stuff from the impeachment wars. I think GeeGee is a old-style Republican intellectual elitist - conservative lite, if you will. She probably wouldn't hold up in a Free Republic debate.
