Though I don't agree with Bush, expecially his choice to invade Iraq and the resulting quagmire, he made some good points during his speech to the UN today. I agree with him that "freedom can not be imposed."
His call for reform and moderation also has merit. I'm guessing that those he addressed today wish he'd have heeded his own words three and a half years ago.
