Maybe, maybe not.

But without Bush, we would never have seen this uprising of people demanding a democratic process.

Now, they may not make it this time, I know. But it is great that they are looking next door at Iraq, even with all its problems, and realizing they want freedom from theocracy.

This is precisely what Bush predicted, by the way. That after seeing democracy coming to Iraq, the Iranians would rise up.

It is unfortunate they're not getting some serious support from the US. Another democracy in the ME would be a pretty big deal. It is too bad we have a president who literally does not know what to do when the phone rings at 3am.
