'Meddling' In Ukraine

Nice write up in the Post today that completely refutes the notion peddled by Pat Buchanan, morons at The Nation, and others that the Orange Revolution was a U.S. creation. It also does a nice job of showing exactly what political NGOs are doing over here.

Long Overdue Sidenote: "Orange" definitely won out as the default name for the political upheaval over here. It was a bit of a dark horse contender originally, I thought "Chestnut" Revolution had the best chance of making it. Carnation Revolution was mentioned once or twice, but never really went anywhere.
