[Reagan Man]

Tim Russert pulled a liberal boner and was properly "Rummified".

OTOH, Robert Scheer has always been a total idiot and was true to form in this case.

Good job by Hewitt.

Of course, it is a loss that the museum was ransacked. But the freeing of the people of Iraq was well worth that cost. And had the diversion of troops to protect government buildings, including museums, cost an additional soldier's or Marine's life, that would have been too high a price to pay.

This cannot be repeated enough. There is a clique of Freepers here foaming at the mouth about the loss of the antiquities; blaming the troops, blaming Rumsfeld, blaming Franks, blaming President Bush. They have actually stated that the antiquities are more important than human life.
