The Orange Revolution

Congrats to Ukraine's Yushchenko at his swearing in as president. Attending the ceremony was Colin Powell, who met with Yush yesterday. At that meeing Yush told Powell:

"I'm sure that on Independence Square you will see hundreds of thousands of people with very bright eyes," Yushchenko said. "None of that would have been possible without our partners who share the same democratic values as we do, in which I include President Bush and you."

Tremble, tyrants.

Not in attendance was election maven Jimmy Carter, out-of-action on the world's foreign election scene since giving a high-five to Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez's "win" in August.
