Reader Peter Ingemi, meanwhile, offers a prediction:
I’m remembering the coy saying about the French resistance. “If everyone who claimed to be in the resistance really had been, there would have been nobody left to collaborate.”
I make the following prediction: In 20 or 25 years (it might not even take that long) all the people who where saying that the war was wrong and Iraq was wrong will talk about how America brought democracy to Iraq and Afghanistan and how they were a part of it due to their protests and desire for democracy and the end of tyranny. (of course they will not mention that the tyranny that they meant was us.) If the same people who write the current history books write them again be sure that this will happen.
Heh. Yeah, just like everybody pulled together during the Cold War.
MSNBC’s Norah O’Donnell on Sarah Palin to a 17 year old Palin supporter:
“Did you know that Sarah Palin supported the bailout?…So, Sarah Palin was for the bailout…She’s against the stimulus, but during the campaign, she was for the bailout, as was John McCain.”
