Wasn't promoting human rights one of the reasons Bush gave for invading Iraq? It was right after WMDs, right?
Anyway, in today's New York Times we get this quote from an Iraqi woman - afraid to give her name:
"Under Saddam we could drive, we could walk down the street until two in the morning," a young designer told me as she bounced her 4-year-old daughter on her lap. "Who would have thought the Americans could have made it worse for women? This is liberation?"
The rest of the article is a complete indictment against BushCo's handling of the occupation of Iraq.
We could do so much better.
