Remember back in the election of Bush vs. Kerry, how the Bush administration said that they could not imagine how Kerry’s suggested use of diplomacy could possibly work?

Follow this link to a story in the New York Times about how the Obama administration is trying to use diplomacy to repair our relation with Russia and solve the threat of Iranian nuclear weapons.

At the time of the Bush/Kerry contest, I was upset at John Kerry for failing to point out that Bush’s ridicule was not proof that diplomacy wouldn’t work.  Instead, it was proof of Bush’s lack of imagination.
