Interesting. When I said that the jihadis prayed for a Bush defeat, I wasn't including every Arab diplomat as a jihadi!

Arab liberals (and they do exist) have good cause to wish for another Bush term, as Bush has managed to thaw the deep-freeze of despotic Arab politics, to the point that reform is at least on the table in many places where it wasn't before.

btw, the term "Arab Americans" can be somewhat misleading, as most Arab Americans are Christian, while most American Muslims are not Arabs at all.
