Who needs friends anyway?

By Kevin Drum:

Turkey has warned us that if Congress passes a resolution calling the 1915 Armenian genocide a genocide, "military ties with the U.S. will never be the same again." Russia and the other states surrounding the Caspian Sea are cozying up to Iran and warning us not to even think about launching an attack against Iran's nuclear facilities. China is "furious" because President Bush is meeting with the Dalai Lama. India is having "certain difficulties" approving its nuclear deal with the U.S. Britain is pulling out of Iraq, the Iraqis are pissed off at us over Blackwater, Afghan leaders are angry over our poppy spraying program, and Pakistan continues to provide a safe haven for the Taliban.

500 years from now, historians will point to the Bush presidency as the supreme, quissentential example of how NOT to do diplomacy.

They don't care much for diplomacy, do they? Nor do they care about governing. It'll be nice to maybe get some people back in government that you know, actually believe in governing and statesmanship.
