Ed Morrissey writes that the New Republic is praising President Bush’s efforts in the Middle East:

In fact, as [TNR’S Martin Peretz] concludes, the greatest irony about George Bush and the Middle East is that history may show that one of the most conservative administrations in ages (Peretz’ opinion) managed to be the first to actually spread liberalism throughout a region most liberals thought to be hopeless.

Wouldn’t be the first time, actually.
