I agree Ben.
And by the way...nice shoes.
;o)
And this is compared to the traitors and defeatists democrats in Congress with few stupid Republicans who are so impotent and so weak that all what they can do to fight our President strategy for victory is to suggest a "non biding" defeatist resolution and even this one have very hard time of getting cloture and passing. Talk about impotent and weak, I present you with the US Congress.
Thanks for posting. Mr. Stein writes the truth.
Me too.
Thanks for a GREAT posting.
The press is Cassandra when a republican president is in the White House, Voltaire's Candide when a democrat is in. It's enough to get one started thinking for oneself, but that only leads to voting third party. What to do, what to do?
Ben Stein has resurrected himself finally. Freepers have been saying along that Bush is lamb for the liberal slaughter. Ben Stein did put it well but alittle late.
Why are the Dem's allowed to formally criticize the President's State of the Union Address, while the Dem's rebuttal cannot be criticized????? It was not a rebuttal. It was a personal attack. Webb's address was nearly treasonous and no one said a thing.
Absolutely love that man.
He's correct. People aren't tired of the war, they're tired of what they are hearing about the war. They're tired of the media.
Draft...Ben Stein for prez.
I agree that Ben Stein is a national treasure but would partially disagree with him that the war is a huge mistake. I say partially because I belive it is too soon to make that assessment.
I like the main parts of this column but I am quite surprised how critical he is of Iraq.
I really wonder what it would take to get someone in the media who supports the Iraq war.
I support the Iraq war and I am surprised to see how much Stein does not.
I think the guy is brilliant but the idea that attacking Saddam or fighting there now is a mistake is the true mistake.
The celebratory mood about no attacks here is directly attributable to fighting over there.
The democratic tensions of Iraq resonate elsewhere and jeopardize the broad state of Islamic fascism. This is inevitably going to take time and violence. Nonetheless, Bush has wisely accelerated this process.
Palestine is a good example. Hamas and Fatah are fighting to the death. That would not be possible without "democracy" previously Hamas got to lie low and play underdog. Now they are both fighting to the death on the other side of a wall.
I think Lebannon is also playing out in our favor because of Iraqi democracy.
I think the edges of Iran are also starting to roll back on Tehran.
Why wont people like Stein defend this?
Yes, Ben, the enemy within is a leftist boil oozing infection constantly, so long as the President is a Republican. But if a lying degenerate democrap president spews lies on world wide TV (I did not have ... what the hell), he's heroic, etc. Yes, Ben, the enemy is within and spewing pus via media spittle.
The good news about all of this is the factoid that "when everybody agrees about something, it's wrong.". This is what we are seeing. Everybody knows Bush is wrong. Ha. There is a thundering sound from the bewildered herd.
Stein has clear and amazing insight.

PETA is preparing to send in an army to save the kitties... NOT ;-)
NPR also had Frank Miller give a few thoughts.
He did not hold back. Thank God.....
