Bush Bashing

Brian says I’m Bush bashing. No permalink – he called, apologized for leaving the phone while he shut his office door and then swore a blue-streak. He was kdding and sounded more like he was looking for an excuse to call and shoot the breeze about WSIS. His point was well-taken though.

I’m concerned about Bush’s involvement not because of his competence in such matters, but more because this is precisely the type of intervention that the international community is reacting to – and badly so. I would be surprised if this meeting is more seen as meddling and less as dialogue. 

Time will tell of course, but I’m not hopeful.
