Media Enable Former Bushies To Rewrite History On Bush Egypt and "Freedom In The Arab World"

Media Enable Former Bushies To Rewrite History On Bush Egypt and "Freedom In The Arab World": [truth-out.org] "Several Bush administration officials have looked to the recent crisis in Egypt in another attempt to rehabilitate former President George W. Bush's image. In a January 30 Washington Post op-ed, former Bush national security advisor Elliott Abrams argued that the 'Egypt protests show George W. Bush was right about freedom in the� Arab world,' claiming that the demonstrations prove Bush's 'freedom agenda' was right about those dastardly Arab dictators.

Never missing an opportunity to attack Obama and defend Bush, Fox News hosted Bush's former press secretary Dana Perino to back up Abrams charges.

But was Bush the champion of democracy in Egypt? Hardly. Indeed, he was one of Mubarak's biggest cheerleaders."
