Clem SpanksThatDonkey in Slantin Mis Leader

Andrew Clem takes the Slantin (to the Left) Mis Leader to task for its recent editorial view on the war.

My favorite part:

As for the war's execution, I regret that Bush's neoconservative advisers failed
to appreciate the depth of nationalistic sentiment in Iraq, thus underestimating
the number of troops needed for occupation, but your editorial's complaint that
we "destabilized the Middle East" wrongly implies that the prewar status quo was
manageable. Sure, Iraq right now is a "mess," just as Europe was for several
years after fascism was defeated there. Was that our fault? As freedom and
democracy spread unpredictably across the Middle East, there will be inevitable
turbulence, just as neoconservatives anticipated. In that uplifting context,
saying that "thousands of lives have been wasted" exhibits terrible judgment on
your part. As for faltering public support, if Lincoln had to worry about low
poll numbers, the Confederacy probably would have won the Civil War.

Then, Mr Clem finales (see link) with a two handed salvo to the rear of the Donkey. Well Done Andrew !!!
