The Ever Inflammatory Mark Steyn

This time he substantively questions the partiotism of Senate Democrats (and some Republicans by association). It would be far too easy to hem and haw and shout "How dare he?!?!", but Steyn's charge is more than political grandstanding. There is substance to the charge he levies, and those who are faced with it must refute it or find themselves convicted of it. The Dems have spent far too much time trying to make political hay out of Iraq and undermine President Bush, to the detriment of the war effort. It's about time they and their Republican fellow-travelers came out and expressed their commitment to the war effort until such time as it proves successful. We're doing too well over there to see things fall apart over here.
