Blame the liberals

The Rude Pundit makes a great point with this one. the right is about to attack the liberals for saying I told you so about the war, they will say that if we had supported the war then we wouldnt be in this mess, while still claiming that we are only a few fringe nutjobs. The rude one in a far more delicate way than usual lays it out, heres a bit of the article.

So let's just say it up front here: over here in Liberalburg, we weren't
happy when Ronald Reagan was cozying up to Saddam Hussein back in the 1980s. We
weren't happy that the United States was backing a brutal, murderous, raping
thug, giving him weapons and such. We weren't happy with the first Persian Gulf
War. We weren't happy with sanctions that decimated the poorest people in Iraq.
We weren't happy that the President wouldn't allow weapons inspectors to finish
their work.We weren't happy with this war to start with, saying, for instance,
that a civil war was the inevitable outcome. We're not happy to be proven right.
We're not happy, simply, when people are dying for no good cause, with no good
outcome on the horizon, and no good way out. Frankly, oh, dear, sweet right
wing, on the whole, we'd've rather been wrong and had tens of thousands of
people not killed, tens of thousands of America soldiers not wounded. We'd've
eaten the crow and, trust us, wonderful, fair right wing, you'd've shoved our
faces in the plate of that black bird.But since we were right, maybe, just
maybe, someone oughta pay a political price for being so goddamned wrong.
Instead, though, the right's gonna try to turn it around and blame the left and
those who "didn't support the war" for its failure. Which would, for all intents
and purposes, finally seal the
deal on Vietnam redux.


Thats pretty much says it for me. there more there and you should read the article but thats my favorite part. thanks again to the Rude One.
