Sic transit gloria Arafati

The reactions to Arafat's death are pretty revealing. The Axis of Weasels, including the Democrats' crazy old aunt Jimmy Carter, all honor him as a powerful leader. Yeah, in the mold of Al Capone.

Arafat last photos reminded me of a client I once represented on charges of child molesting. He was an old guy, but absolutely obsessed with little girls. When confronted with facts he would grin as if to say "Ain't I a stinker?" He made my skin crawl.

The fact that anybody treated Arafat as a legitimate national leader is a testament to their own gullibility. To his credit, Bush never met with him. The others helped enable one of the biggest con men in history. History will judge them as harshly as Arafat himself.
