an interesting piece on obama from the WP. i've wondered about Bahrain many times, how we can support a corrup regime-at it's simplest, we support it because it's best for
us. we tried to keep support for mubarek, because he was west-friendly. we chose poorly, so now we have 'unfriendly to the west' people in charge in egypt. i'm sure all the troubles in egypt are far from over.
i really wish we'd quit meddling in bs like that-where does it get us? we need to retreat to worrying about our own little part of the world....george washington warned us about getting involved in euro conflicts, since those folks love nothing so much as war. he'd say the same about the middle east, still trying to sort itself out since those countries are no longer controlled by euro empires.
