Thanks for the post. This has been bookmarked, and will be forwarded to everyone on my email list. This is a stunningly well-written article, one which cogently explains the case for war and picks apart the case against it. Whatever the current doubts, I suspect that history will smile very kindly on those Americans, most notably GWB, who had the fortitude to focus on the most important goal: the safety of the American people. Sometimes, the best way to be left alone is to make sure that no one who can kill you, and who has expressed a perverse desire to do so, is left standing.

Before I get flamed by the isolationists out there, let me say this: I, too, am horrified by the truly evil potential of various laws passed since 9/11. In the hands of the wrong people (Hillary and her fellow travelers), these are the tools for imposing a dictatorship here at home. I wish that GWB had the wisdom to veto those laws (and "campaign finance reform), as being terribly destructive of our freedoms. We did better on this score during WW2, and there's no reason that we can't do so in the present circumstances.
