Democracy is Contagious
Three cheers for the Ukrainian pro-democracy demonstrators who are wresting their country away from corrupt kleptocracy. Another former Soviet republic chooses the course of human liberty. Remember, everyone who was on the left during the Cold War was happy to consign every one of these people to endless totalitarianism. I've admitted I was wrong and thank God that Reagan fought and won the Cold War. Anyone else?
Charles Krauthammer has a terrific article about Ukraine and about Europe's only occasional support of democracy (which I found via LGF).
