I hope someone in the current adminsitration is keeping our leaders mindful of the problems on this side of the globe.  Not at the exclusion of the middle east, europe and africa...but in addition to. 

One thing I am sure of:  President McCain or President Obama will be able to juggle multiple problems in multiple places. I know President Gore or Kerry would have been able to. 

I am never terribly optimistic about President Bush or his advisors.

True.

Political turmoil and economic turmoil unckecked can lead to grisly outcomes.

[??????????]

Yes, because Bush never did anything to fight AIDs in Africa.

Yes, because Bush never did anything to fight AIDs in Africa.

I'm not sure what that has to do with the issue at hand.

Latin America will be fine. Give it thirty years and it'll look like Texas.

Oh wait, other way around. Texas is fu*cked. Give it thirty years and it'll look like Latin America.

Isn't hyperbolic partisanship fun?
