Bush finds believer in Georgian leader-(Mikhail Saakashvili-"Bush on right side of history!")

The 37-year-old, U.S.-educated freedom fighter who led a popular uprising in 2003 dubbed the "Rose Revolution," which ousted a former top Soviet official from power told The Washington Times yesterday that the U.S. president is on the right side of history.

"It's a new kind of ideology that we have from this president that's kind of crystallized now. It is idealistic. It's a much more moral position, a winning position,"

"I think President Bush was very fast to capture this mood," he added.

The boyish leader of this nation of 4.4 million people sees the sweep of peaceful uprisings in the Middle East and former Soviet Union in the past 18 months as proof that the desire for freedom is universal. Everybody, he said, was cynical about Bush's speech at his second inaugural, which laid out his vision to spread democracy. "But look at what's happening, against all the odds, against all the skeptics, against all the cynical remarks. Appeasement and trying to please dictators, in the long run, it's very stupid policy."

Note the coverage of President Bush's visit to Tiblisi, Georgia, as reported (map and all !!) by the Arizona Republic! Someone should inform the editorial board there, that the president was in a former Soviet republic, not somewhere near Atlanta, then send them an international atlas.
