Hmm.

Reading Claudia Rosett's blog, most recently covering the Oil-for-Food revelations from the court hearings on Tongsun Park's activities, I thought about how the same people who regularly dismiss the ability of Arabs to maintain a democracy are so loyal to the U.N. which is basically run by Third-Worlders and EU types who have about as much loyalty to real democracy as al Qaeda. Both have a basic belief that they and their technocrat associates are the ones who should be running the world, not the rabble we allow to vote and run for office in this country. They'd much prefer people like John Kerry, who will be true to their own class.
