Pardon Me... Is That Good News?
Christopher Hitchens on the recent events and the "good news" within Iraq.
Agreed....I am not at all certain that any of this apparently good news is really genuine or will be really lasting. However, I am quite sure both that it could be true and that it would be wonderful if it were to be true. What worries me about the reaction of liberals and Democrats is not the skepticism, which is pardonable, but the dank and sinister impression they give that the worse the tidings, the better they would be pleased. The latter mentality isn't pardonable and ought not to be pardoned, either.

Pardon me then, Chris, but what exactly does "ought not to be pardoned" mean? Punished? Tortured? Killed?
All too good for 'em.
Although deportation to the Middle East country of their choice would be amusing... and that goes even for Israel.
