ANDREW SULLIVAN agrees with the people I link below that Bush’s speech yesterday was an important one. But Spanish reader Franco Aleman notes that it’s being spun differently in Europe:

Steyn is right. Europe is dying, if only because some (most?) European media are giving their own alternate reality to their readers. It’s like reading articles translated by MEMRI.

So, after what’s probably one of Bush’s more important speeches on international affairs, in which he lays a ‘grand vision’ (which is what many critics had been finding lacking) announcing new efforts to bring democracy to the Middle East, admitting that the policies during the last 60 years haven’t worked and therefore new ones are needed, what’s their headline?

“Bush admits his failure at democratizing the Middle East” Link (in Spanish).

But of course. (Here’s the link to the Steyn piece on Europe).
