W?

The middle east is definitely in the news with the regime change that occurred in Egypt.  Now other middle east dictatorships are in jeopardy of similar citizen's revolt.  The mainstream media is telling the story as if it was a spontaneous reaction by the youth.  There has been no mention of George W. Bush's policy developed after 9-11. 

Bush was clear that his plan was to establish a democracy in Iraq that could be a shining example of freedom to the rest of the region.  Is it working?  Maybe.  But the lack of even a mention by the mainstream media is just another data point suggesting they don't want W getting any credit for his actions after 9-11.  Not surprising, but pathetic.

  1. The media sure seems to work from a single, shared script.
