"Nobody in America is asked to sacrifice, except us...."
Lack of hair and a propensity for lies: at least two things Robert Novak and Lt. General Steven Blum have in common.
War-orientated:
- "The Bush administration's rallying call that America is a nation at war is increasingly ringing hollow to men and women in uniform, who argue in frustration that America is not a nation at war, but a nation with only its military at war." (full article "All Quiet on the Home Front, and Some Soldiers Are Asking Why": The New York Times)
- "The U.S. military on Sunday said it was looking into how virtually identical quotations ended up in two of its news releases about different insurgent attacks." (full article "'Enemies of humanity' quote raises Iraq PR questions": CNN.com)
- "Lt. Gen. Steven Blum said he recognizes that every [war time] death is a tragedy for that person's family. "But I lose, unfortunately, more people through private automobile accidents and motorcycle accidents over the same period of time..." - probably not taking over for Scott McClellan any time soon.
And on the home front:
Can This Administration Do Anything Right?
While Matt asks: Still Think Valerie Plame Wasn’t Undercover?
And I still ask all the time: How Does Bob Novak Sleep at Night?
Plus is anyone gonna really be shocked if this goes down?
BTW, Jean Charles de Menezes might have been executed by London police - nice! (via Sploid)
Finally: I wouldn't be surprised.
