Garrett:  “Well, he’s got a point, doesn’t he?  I mean, in both cases the insurgents wore sandals.  And then there’s that whole creepy Jane Fonda overlap…”*

  1. i’m sorry, but i just spent the weekend with a few troops back from iraq, and judging from what i heard, hagel is smoking crack.

    Shouldn’t the majority whip handle this, by you know, whipping him?

  3. AWG says:

    With as many people sorely in need of a whipping, we need something more akin to a majority flagellum.

    No sharia, period. You got a problem with that, Achmed? Talk to the 4th ID. But I can tell you what they’re gonna say.

    If the Sunnis don’t get reasonable, I say screw ‘em. They’ll lose a civil war, badly.

    And to hell with what the damn Turks want. They haven’t exactly been “Mr. Helpful” in all this.

  5. JWebb says:

    The only corollary to Vietnam is in the predictable reaction from the left. Jane Fonda? Just this weekend, Joan Baez dragged her billygoat vibrato down to Crawford for Cindy solidarity. I hope the country can survive long enough to see the Vietnam generation pass from the stage. That’s my generation, but what the hell. . .

  6. mph says:

    Shouldn’t those who manned enemy anti-aircraft batteries 30 years ago be strapping on suicide bombs now?

    Please?

  7. susan says:

    They up-dated Janes Fonda’s stiff war helmet to a Mother Cindy Sheehan’s sagging straw hat. 

    Lame.

    It’s all about the flashbacks.

  8. Jeff Goldstein says:

    And the steamed dumplings.
