I’ll be impressed when you get just as critical about what’s happening in, oh, Sudan let’s say, where they don’t bother trafficing in humans, they just hack them to pieces with machetes. Or Zimbabwe, where the kleptocratic Mugabe government is preparing the final confiscation of the white farmer’s lands, and meanwhile setting up the country for mass famine. I realize that if George Bush can’t be blamed for it, it’s not on your radar scope, so I won’t be holding my breath.
