Morton Kondracke doesn't hold many of my political views, but much like Christopher Hitchens I at least respect him as a thinker and a person. He has an excellent editorial on the Iraq-Vietnam comparisons available online here.
Here is an excerpt:
"Shame on Sens. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.) for picking a moment of high danger for U.S. troops in Iraq to declare, in essence, that their activities are in vain.
And shame, too, on former New Jersey Gov. Thomas Kean (R), chairman of the Sept. 11, 2001, investigating commission, for issuing a prejudgment that the terrorist attacks that day could have been prevented. "
Kudos to Bill Bennett for pointing this article out on his radio show. I am very pleased it is running in Cincinnati during my drive time, he always tells it like it is and showed a lot of guts by not going into hiding after the gambling kerfuffle. His website can be accessed here.
