As I mentioned yesterday, a blogospheric debate on the role of the United States in promoting democracy is under way. Marc Schulman of American Future made his opening statement here. Eric Martin of Total Information Awareness made his opening statment here. Marc rebuts here. All are excellent posts, considered and reasonably presented and are worthy of your attention.
UPDATE: Eric has posted his rebuttal here.
For what it’s worth, my rebuttal is up here:

Thanks for contributing to the discussion by the way.
Thank you, Eric. I’ll update my post immediately.
And you’re welcome.
