>From the American Prospect article:
Most typical, but by no means most extreme, was the bloodcurdling rant

by Robert Kagan, a right-wing Republican whose Washington Post Op-Ed

on Wednesday was called, "We Must Fight This War." Presumably not

volunteering himself to go to Afghanistan, Kagan says, "Go to war

against those who have launched this awful war against us."

---I can assure you that this man not only will not volunteer to fight this war, nor will his children or nieces/nephews likely have to fight it. But they will be the first to call anyone who questions their warmaking hunger 'unamerican' or 'supportive of the WTC attackers'....and liberals will fall in line and dance to his tune....after all god forbid they be perceived as 'unpatriotic.'
