The American Enterprise Institute's Danielle Pletka tweets:
'Fascinated by sudden interest in democracy from certain quarters that believed US role in democracy promotion stupid.'
It gets more fascinating still, when you consider that the U.S. didn't play any role at all in the protests now roiling the region. Perhaps that's why they have succeeded (provisionally) in Tunisia and may (I stress may) change things in Egypt?
The second point of interest is who's not all that interested in the protests in Egypt: neoconservatives. Clicking over to the Weekly Standard and Commentary - not much going on there about the protests (as of this writing). What gives?
