Answer the question

Mark Kilmer has multiple posts on how the Democrats responded to questions on the Sunday morning talk shows: “It is important, they said as if in metaphysical unison, to internationalize the Iraqi situation.”

The Democrats insist that there’s a big “Internationalize” button in the Oval Office and – darn it! – Bush simply refuses to press it. Bush begged the United Nations to enforce its own resolutions, he asked for military help, and he asked for economic aid at the donor’s conference. The French said “non” each time and the Europeans followed suit. Now what do you do? It’s worse than useless to make glib comments like “This President doesn’t work well with other countries.” Take a stand, already.
