No word on whether Google News put that picture of Jacques Chirac there on purpose.
While the NYT and Google went for “cheeky,” The Boston Globe got it right: Bush notes US cultural excesses.
“There is nothing incompatible between democratic values and high standards of decency.”
Note to prospective Middle Eastern politicians: “There ought to be limits to freedom.” Limits to freedom of speech, limits to free elections, limits on open, transparent government, limits on accountability, limits on dissent, but definitely no limits on power.
In other words, follow me, boys.
