I agree with Josh, we need some clear and articulate arguments for the Left to support the democratization process. I can't tell you how much carping I've been getting about "globalist conspiracies" and "just another oil war" .. and yes, I'm disappointed to say, I've gotten it a lot among the Occupy Chicago crowd when I protest with them. If the American Left doesn't stand up on this we'll throw away an opportunity as significant as the one we threw away in the aftermath of the Iraqi Invasion/Occupation.
On the other hand, would we want him to react (in his usual way) to a perceived nuclear strike on the US???
