Am I reading April Fools Op-eds? Because these guys can't be serious...

A NY Times op-ed argues “The West needs to change its approach to Mr. Mugabe. Years of isolation and ineffective sanctions, with which he has fueled his propaganda campaign, have only driven Mr. Mugabe downward.”

Really? Maybe the author should have tried to get this article published before Mugabe got trounced in the elections. Because the only “conversation” the West should have with him should be about respecting the results of a democratic election and stepping aside.

. . . .

This op-ed does not deserve a response other than the observation that Republicans must really want Hillary to win the primary. This article appears to be a Republican's attempt to weaken Obama by continuing to discuss Wright and taking advantage of people who didnt see the Obama speech by bringing up "sensational charges about white racism." For someone who saw his speech, it's hard to say that Obama's discussion of white racism was "sensational."
