Truths

Just adding this before I go out the door. Juan Cole slaps Doughboy Goldberg around some more (good for the weasel bastid), but the paragraph that got me was this:

I don't think there is anything at all unpatriotic about a young man opposing a war and declining to enlist. But a young man (and this applies to W. and Cheney too) who mouths off strongly about the desirability of a war is a coward and a hypocrite if he does not go to fight it.

[. . .]


This should be one of Life's underlying truths. Maybe we wouldn't have so many wars.
