Reagan took down one dictatorship -- Noriega's -- and stymied a Cuban takeover of Grenada, which certainly hardly deserved being sucked in by Cuba, of all places and régimes. Bush took down two dictatorships: Saddam's Iraq and the Taliban's Afghanistan, both of which were universally acknowledged to be worldclass examples of suckass misgovernment.
This is more zealotry for human liberty than very many here have shown, and more effectually than any Democratic President since Truman, and it's to W's credit. And of course, this is why you should share my zealotry for human liberty rather than the passive-ism that breaks out in buboes all over the American Left when it's time to make men free -- by making their enslavers cease and desist. Should you really tolerate suckass misgovernment solely because it's, er, someplace else? Some of the people who argue with me really seem to believe that one. Sounds about as smart as insisting the world is flat.
