So Joe Klein fixed the broken link in his sophomoric challenge to the "illiberal leftists" on the blog-o-sphere. He linked to that article to prove he was against the war since 2002.

Other bloggers, like BooMan have noted that Klein had many opportunities to come out passionately against the war when it would have counted, but instead chose to call it the "right decision."

DB has nothing to add except this: That article is not even close to an example of war opposition. It just says there are (were) enough question marks to justify a debate and that politicians should be obligated to express whatever doubts they have, as Al Gore did.

If DB writes "Joe Klein's books should be in the library," that in no way means this blogger thinks anybody ought to read them.

Because I don't.

The default position of leftists like, say, Michael Moore and many writers at The Nation, is that America is essentially a malignant, imperialistic force in the world and the use of American military power is almost always wrong. -- Joe Klein, on the "the hate America tendency of the [Democratic Party's] left wing"

So all the Pro-Lifers who are completely opposed to our nation's current policy regarding reproductive rights... they "hate America."

All the Republicans opposed to our entire domestic policy during the Clinton years... they "hated America."

DB is entirely fed up with the local parking violations office... gosh, sure is tough to be so full of hatred.
