Appetite For Destruction
When the going gets tough, the tough have to listen to whining...
Ah, the itch under my skin, the splinter in my mind - it is the attempts at revisionism and prevarication from those who now, seeing Iraq as a political liability, attempt to cast themselves as victims of a cruel hoax.
It isn't working. There is too much material out there. The RNC captured it well in a video here.
I have an indescribable disgust for those who now seek to play the fool rather than swallow hard and step up to what they themselves - no one else - said, and supported, and by act of commission or omission allowed to go forward in Iraq.
It seemed for many a natural extension of aggressive American policy posture to Iraq during the Clinton years - especially 1998, which saw major US strikes in Iraq, as well as the Iraq Liberation Act.
It seems many Democrats have the appetite for war, but not the stomach for it.
