"We have a bad impression of the human shields. Some of them are crazy," said an Iraqi Foreign Ministry official, who requested anonymity.

 

"As the sands shift and we execute the plan, one fact remains true: Marines are the windstorm that will liberate the Iraqi people from one of the most repressive regimes on the face of the earth and make their freedom a reality. Nothing will stop the U.S. Marines." - Lt. Gen. James T. Conway, the chief Marine commander in the region.

Takes a highly-educated genius to figure out that the most advanced military on the planet is going to stomp a disorganized bunch of dubiously loyal soldiers with insufficient weaponry. What an enlightening quote, Mr. Puget!

Here's one from Mr. Andrew Sullivan:

 

I biked past a rather pathetic figure in Dupont Circle this afternoon. barely old enough to grow a beard, this poor soul was wearing a large cardboard placard: "Ashamed American." Ashamed. Ashamed of the liberation of a people from an unspeakable tyrant. It's a form of self-hatred and inverse liberalism that truly boggles the mind. here's Eric Hoffer from "The True Believer: Thoughts on the nature of Mass Movements:

It is easier for the frustrated to detect their own imaginings and hear the echo of their own musings in impassioned double-talk and sonorous refrains than in precise words joined together with faultless logic ... That the deprecating attitude of a mass movement toward the present seconds the inclinations of the frustrated is obvious. What surprises one, when listening to the frustrated as they decry the present and all its works, is the enormous joy they derive from doing so. Such delight cannot come from the mere venting of a grievance. There must be something more - and there is. By expatiating upon the incurable baseness and vileness of the times, the frustrated soften their feeling of failure and isolation.

Yes, failure and isolation. And it's going to get worse and worse for these deluded apologists for evil.
