Best line (among many): the need to whack Saddam was more important than the pretext on which he was whacked. He was unfinished business from Sept. 10.

Ohh, I dunno. I think I like this one:

"And do Americans want to hand over responsibility for Iraq to someone who won't even take responsibility for the car in his driveway?"

That's Kerry's whole problem in a nutshell. The guy gives new shallowness to the phrase "empty suit". How can you talk about a family car when all your children are grown up?

I liked my "best line" because it made a point that for some reason people don't want to make. As soon as the statue fell, the mainstream press set about to make the presence or absence of WMD a big issue. I remember asking my somewhat liberal brother "Who freaking cares?" But everyone has gone on and on like it matters. For cryin' out loud, we knew he had 'em, he used 'em, so if they're not there he must have shipped 'em out or destroyed 'em. So?

It's like if you go to Edison, NJ now and go to the Ford plant which closed 3-6 months ago. If you walk through the plant you won't see any cars or trucks or components, so a mainstream press idiot would say "See, see, you can't prove they made cars or trucks here!" Meanwhile all of the underground assembly line equipment is still there, lots of the tool and die stuff that could only be used to make cars, and other evidence. How stupid can people be? Thankfully, "the right half" that Steyn refers to isn't that stupid.

Ditto. If Kerry can't honestly face criticism over a trivial matter from some environmentalist bed-wetter, how will he strike tough deals with the Russians, French or Chinese and how will he be tough against North Korea, Iran, and the terrorists? I don't think "flower power" and peace signs will win the hearts and minds of the terrorists. I don't think having biscuits and tea at some UN meeting is going to increase our security. I prefer that our snipers are "blowing the minds" of terrorists on a daily basis. Oh I forgot, according to Kerry, our service people are the evil doers...

And do Americans want to hand over responsibility for Iraq to someone who won't even take responsibility for the car in his driveway?
