Richard Combs has a stronger stomach than I do. While I was looking at bloody pictures from London, he was reading the Democratic Underground.
And, no, I wasn't trying to be funny or ironic.
Who needs DU. I've been listening to BBC and it's sickening. Constant laments that this "nevah would 'ave 'appened if it weren't for George Bush." Just repetitive insistence that this day's events demonstrate conclusively that the WOT is a failed and misguided endeavor, which should be reconsidered and abandoned by right-thinking Brits. A droning-on about how Islam is a religion of peace. Baseless assertions, stated as fact, that the WOT has increased Islamo-fascist recruitment and endangered lives far and above the risk posed by an unprovoked al Quaida, and that "hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians" are being slaughtered by American troops.
"If one's to be objective," the allegedly disinterested jackass reporter asserts, "one's got to note the increase in terrorist activities as a consequence of the Americans' presence in Afghanistan and Iraq."
What? 9/11--Al Quaida's crowning jewel--could certainly not have resulted from America's response to 9/11. Since 9/11/01 there's been 2 train bombings in Madrid and London. This is evidence of Al Quaida's strength and the failure of the WOT?
I swear, Brits are beginning to demonstrate the same short memory, lack of perspective, and pansy-Euro enabler response that Michael Moore and Spain give to terrorists. They're toast, and my sympathies are waning.

Here’s a comment I just posted to Dan Darling over at Winds of Change.

We must kick the enemy’s butt and right now! We must stay focused, our heads in the game, and keep our eye on the ball.
We must ignore the shots of the detractors from the bleachers.
We must win this war.
See my two cents worth in this thread over at Roger L. Simon’s:
