"Bush, himself the most intellectually backward American president of my political lifetime, is surrounded by advisers whose bellicosity is exceeded only by their political, military and diplomatic illiteracy," Kaufman wrote. That's great, but it has proven to be absolutely wrong. Since the cited article was written, we've had democratic elections in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine. We have Egypt and Saudi Arabia actually discussing the possibility of free elections. We have had Libya surrender its nuclear arsenal. And now we have Syria pulling out of Lebanon and the sustainability of leadership in Syria coming into question. Meanwhile, the administration has kept Iran and NK in check (a remarkable feat given the mess Bush inherited). It is pretty tough to argue with success. But I know you'll try.
