The U.S. Government is largely responsible for Mugape being in office to begin with. A democratically elected leader was disposed because of Young and Carter’s actions.
“I remember the leftists singing their praises of “Zimbabwe!” (and “Fidelll!”) back in the late 70s. Betcha they ain’t singing that song any more — anymore than they’re admitting they were wrong, wrong, wrong.”
I bet they do not admit they are wrong anymore than Carter does today. Also, I bet they still priase Mugape.

Should we not learn from these escapades and remove the Administration’s abilities to intrude on a foreign government’s business when those actions have little to no impact on our nation? The current Congress did a good thing by denying furtherance of the Administration’s trade policy powers (NAFTA, CAFTA, etc.) but follies like this and Clinton’s BlackHawk foray into Somalia should never be seen again.
Seriously - we should have seen Bin Laden swinging from a rope long before Saddam Hussein did, yet that bastard seems to still be out there mocking our 90% Iraq/10% Afghanistan military policy.
