The good news you never hear about Anti-Americanism entered the first pangs of its death throes this week with the continued showing of the prison photos. The national mourning, the hearings, the shock, self-flagellation and guilt, punctuated by civilian Nicholas Berg's beheading -- the whole thing became so serious that we finally all got bolted out of our smug complacency and started to make, arguably for the first time, the strict adult calculations of right and wrong. The chattering of the chattering classes was, just for that moment, stilled, and then it switched courses in mid-stream and some began to support the country, rather than continuing to parrot the lazy evil platitudes of Edward Said. And finally, the extraordinary sacrifice of those kids over there in Iraq, those kids from the Red States, where Tina Brown, Sidney Blumenthal and Bob Woodward never go, began to be recognized as so heroic and difficult, it defied belief. And the hopes of the whacko left for another Vietnam were dashed. The red states? Such $h*t? Do you have any idea how many have died or been maimed from WA state, a blue state. I hate righties........really. They are some of the most miserable, hypercritical, judgemental, anti American people on the planet. Thanks for confirming my biases. And the views of this Canadian Ann Coulter do not reflect the views of most Canadians. ted
