BBC - Justin Webb praised Bush

Albeit mildly. Still, coming from the BBC this is a rarity.

Yet as the world prepares to confront Iran over its nuclear ambitions it seems to me that an unprejudiced view of where the president is coming from, of what he has in store, is more important than ever.

He says he loves us all and he says he loves freedom - believes in its power, its civilising influence.

Is he fooling us? Will he bin this boyish enthusiasm for free votes when the going gets tough?

I think not. This is a man capable of seizing new ideas. A man who knows what it is like to maintain a course in spite of temptations along the way.


I wonder how long it will take Webb to apologize for this report like he did over his kind remarks on the radio.
