Bashar looking more dangerous than ever

Syria's Bashar Assad as "Evil Moron"?

James Taranto, in his OpinionJournal - Best of the Web Today column, notes that Slate calls Syria's dictator, Bashar Assad, an "evil moron".

Given that the left has called Bush an idiot more times than I can remember, yet he manages to defeat them in almost every arena, Slate's denunciation of Bashar Assad as an "evil moron" may actually make me more likely to worry about him rather than less.
