A War President's Job (washingtonpost.com)

Fuck, conservative columnist George Will is getting all feisty these days. Maybe his beloved Orioles lost.

Side note that may only interest me: George Will has a down's syndrom son, now in his 20s, who loves baseball. I've read a proud, but compassionate column from him about his son before.

See 'W'? Conservatism can be compassionate. For reals, even.

A War President's Job (washingtonpost.com): "Since Sept. 11, 2001, Americans have been told that they are at war. They have not been told what sacrifices, material and emotional, they must make to sustain multiple regime changes and nation-building projects. Telling such truths is part of the job description of a war president."
