My own opinion is that the Dems couldn't organize a good vomit contest after eating maggots (sorry for that image). Which is what their party is full of. I am so glad you apologized.

I would counter that those on the left don't understand the simplicity of the problem -- Bingo. They claim their ideology has too much "nuance" or "subtlety" for a dumb right winger to understand, which is a tacit admission that their ideas and beliefs cannot be substantiated by a-priori logic. Their stance on issues must be cloaked in semantic gymnastics, gobbledygook reasoning, and outright lies.

First, even though the Bush team came to this theme late in the day, this war is the most important liberal, revolutionary U.S. democracy-building project since the Marshall Plan.And this man expects his readers to acknowledge his expertise in political commentary! For a whole year, the Bush administration was saying that a Democratic Iraq was the key to a stable Middle East. They were also saying that a thug with WMD capability had to be stopped - the UN agreed with that.
I guess Friedman, like so many other libs, has such a high opinion of his own thoughts that he doesn't have to waste time actually listening to the speeches of the President.

Friedman is an over-rated windbag.
A Walter Lippman wannabe who couldn't change Lippman's typewriter ribbon.
The Times' Op-Ed lineup is a national disgrace.
