Congratulations, and welcome to our club, Fareed Zakaria. Finally, you are beginning to get it. What an astounding and unapologetic turnabout for a hitherto staunch defender of the Bush administration's views and deeds! Did it really take Abu Ghraib to open your eyes? Now let's hope for some new Bob Woodward or Carl Bernstein stepping forward to educate the American public at large, especially the U.S. electorate, come November.

Every week I eagerly await the arrival of NEWSWEEK to read Fareed Zakaria's commentary. As an American living in Germany, I must congratulate him for his excellent May 17 article that explains why an overwhelming majority of Germans are anti-Bush. Unfortunately, the arrogance emanating from Washington has led to anti-Americanism in places where it had never existed before.

The price of arrogance had been blood and bucks all these months; now, we have shame to bear, in addition. So long as Bush and his militant advisers steer the country, this steep price will continue to climb. November cannot come too soon.

Excuse me Mr McLean, but in 1989, I was working in Colombia....and all the DEA agens knew that Alvaro Uribe was a crook. Period. If politicians, for dirty politics, want to crown him saint as the Mother Santa Theresa, It's all right, but this is cynical. He was a vital and important piece of the Medellin Cartel , and a close friend of the drugkinpin Pablo Escobar. Please, Mr McLean, don't manipule the truth. Facts are facts.
MEDIA Just a year after buying The Wall Street Journal, the press rapscallion has revitalized the fusty paper.
