Not sure how Sharansky fits in there. Can you elaborate?

Bush helped build the fire that flames the current nuttiness.

Bush was big on the Sharansky ideas (The Case for Democracy: The Power of Freedom to Overcome Tyranny and Terror) of how democracy was the single best vehicle for change.

I believe Obama’s response to the Arab Spring are in no small measure supportive of those ideas.
