"Nothing is more depressing to me than watching apparent liberals embrace some form of mutant realism that just ignores the human rights implications of American isolationism. "

Wanting to work through the UN is not isolationism. It's a common canard that the "liberals" are isolationists when they don't support Bush's adventure in the ME, but most of the liberals I know would simply rather see a more inclusive approach. Actually, we think it's Bush who is the isolationist- since he is the one unable to work with other countries (unless those countries agree to be our poodles)- isolationist in terms of isolating the US from other countries; not isolationist in his desire to interfere everywhere, on his own terms, with not thought for what other countries might think.
