One last kick - an administration with a goal to spread freedom and democracy around the world (second inaugural speech) has instead picked up a lot of blame for human rights offenses. Thus the end result record for Bush's own stated aims is very mixed, and advancing his cause is hampered by the reduced credibility he wields in that department How about this? Should the administration receive any human rights credit for the funds already provided and yet to be provided to Pakistan,(earthquake) Dafur, Sudan, Africa and the Tsunami victims? Is any of that action credible as contributory to human rights? If so, it would be nice to see that weighed against the real and imagined human rights offences claimed at Abu Gahraib (sic), Gitmo etc.
