Liberals Desire More Regime Change

Hitch nails it again. While justifiably taking America to task for our timid response to Islam Karimov's Abidjan massacre, he also notes that liberals are now proponents for a sweeping agenda of regime change.

They [Bush's critics] are, at any rate ostensibly, demanding that we use our influence to amend Uzbekistan's internal affairs. So it seems as if, when all the rhetoric is examined, the regime-change position is only being criticized for its inconsistency. That strikes me as progress of a kind.
