<P>Why did the editors of The Nation feel it necessary to issue that "we disagree profoundly" disclaimer re: Cockburn's recent column on Hitler? It comes across as cowardly and spineless. Aside from his usual rhetorical shock and awe, he didn't say anything he hasn't said before. I actually thought it was one of his funniest pieces in a long time. It totally cracked me up. </P>
<P>(Don't get me wrong: I'm a big fan of The Nation's current editorial regime. The magazine is superbly well-edited. They just need to chill out a bit.)</P><p><hr SIZE=1>
