And then consider that it's happened under Bush and Cheney's watch - they who considered themselves messengers and liberators from God himself and took it in their own hands to go plundering and murdering people in Iraq (which by the way was a fully functioning country), while genocide of the worst kind known to the world was taking place not too far away from the Middle-East. Some day when history is written (and not the revisionist kind of history that Cheney tried so hard to write in his final days as VP), I believe we'll look at the issue of Darfur and we'll look back with great remorse.
It doesn't help that nothing much has been said of Darfur or is being done even today, but at least we don't have a president who believes he is *the* 'axis-of-good.'
