I try to fit in up here in the People's Republic of Washington, but it's so confusing to pretend to be a liberal:
- I'm supposed to say the US is evil because the Iraq war was "unilateral," which means that Russia wasn't among the 50+ nations contributing to the effort. But US is also evil because Russia is among the nations contributing to the Afghanistan war effort.
- The US is evil because we're contemplating military intervention against the oppressive Muslim government of Iran, and we're also evil because we're not contemplating military intervention against the oppressive Muslim government of Sudan.
- The US is evil because we supported Muslim Kosovo's declaration of independence. The US is also evil because we don't support Muslim Palestine's declaration of independence.
I think I'm just going to give up and say "the US is evil" in response to anything at all.
