…and the wingnuts will beat a path to your door.
This, from Sadly, No! is an absolute Must-Read for everyone of the rational human persuasion.
Read and learn some dangerous truths about the neocon mind:
The wingnut strawman is the Clash of Civilizations, World War IV, the Great Struggle Against a Monolithic Enemy. Folks, this is what the man means by “perpetual war for perpetual peace”. This is why you have nutjobs like Atlas Shrugs and the Powertools saying that capturing or killing bin Laden would merely be a symbolic act. This is why you have Glenn Reynolds and Stephen Green disseminating the “Long War” talking points. This is why you have Daniel Pipes and Mark Steyn constantly calling for an all-out war on Islam. They want the war to last forever, and not just because they hate the “Other”, but also because they enjoy the conditions war puts on domestic politics.
Read the whole thing, dammit. Read and learn what we’re up against, and why.
