Heh, this is why my hair is down to my waist!
When Liberals Are Honest About The War In Iraq
I like Lileks today too.
Selfishness is bad, right?
What drives the left absolutely mad is that they still have to mouth the "we support the troops but not the war" line. They dont support the troops. Truth be told, they would love to return to the days of yelling "Baby Killer" at returning soldiers. The Anheiser Busch ad from the Super Bowl with the soldiers in DCU's at the airport must have made them all sick to there stomachs. Thankfully most of us see through the Lefty BS.

No, seriously, was anyone else awake when the case for this war was being made back in 2002? Does anyone have the impression that a case consisting of the argument that it was worth going to war so Iraqis could have a nice democracy and purple fingers would've been greeted with anything but incredulous laughter? The debate over the wisdom of this war was over months ago. The neocons lost, badly. That wouldn't change if Iraq became a Middle Eastern Switzerland tomorrow. It wasn't a good enough reason to go to war when it was a vague possibility, it's not good enough now that it's a vague possibility we've moved a few steps toward, and it won't be good enough if it becomes a reality.
