Bush's (Speech Writer's?) Frankenstein Monsters

It is pretty apparent that George Bush reads aloud (and perhaps signs) whatever is put in front of him. His unfortunate 2002 State of the Union message including David Frum's notorious "axis of evil" phrase:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/bush/story/0,7369,658724,00.html

has had devastatingly negative effects upon U.S. interests. Its mentality was utilized to justify a foolish and costly war on an already devastated nation, diverting attention from and adding fuel to the fires of Islamic terrorism. The Koreans have been basking in the attention brought to them by the Bush designation. And we certainly turned off opportunities to appeal to the younger generation of Iranians already then balking at the strictures of the mullahs.

Today we are watching the evolution of a Middle East both somewhat in chaos (Lebanon particularly at risk of reverting to deadly civil war), threatened by attacks immediate or down the line upon/by Israel/Iran, Iraq in chaos or joining forces with Iran to resist American dominance, Jordan destabilized, Pakistan facing a potential coup with the assassination of its dictator/general now barely holding back threats against India and U.S. interests, Syria lining up with some of the above rather than peace-making with Israel, Libya playing games again with hidden nuclear capacities, Egypt being destabilized by 'democratization' and the Muslim Brotherhood, Israel in disarray as it confronts the threats from all of the above.

Looks like the monsters have been unleashed by careless words and actions here, there, and elsewhere.
