On the Op-Ed page is a piece by one John Lukacks taking President Bush (and Reagan) to task for ---GASP!---returning the salutes of military personnel:
This gesture is of course quite wrong: such a salute has always required the wearing of a uniform. But there is more to this than a decline in military manners. There is something puerile in the Reagan (and now Bush) salute. It is the joyful gesture of someone who likes playing soldier. It also represents an exaggeration of the president's military role."Puerile". That better describes why a leading newspaper, with our troops in harms way, would publish such CR@P!
Puerile: ooh, have they been dipping into their thesaurus?
Q: Will there be a toppling of a statue in Tikrit with American flag [this Hong Kong broad is a real embarrassment to journalism--she of the retreat question infamy]?
Something like this?
