#1 The more of this that makes it to the MSM, the better. The next step will be, assuming the Bush Doctrine isn't sidetracked domestically, the transformation by the intelligent Socialists and Tranzis to the point where they begin to write and speak as if they predicted this outcome - implying it was obvious, etc. - it just didn't have to be done this way - using the Skeery campaign BS tactic. It could have been achieved by other means, Socialist / Tranzi means, peacefully. Yadda3.

Meanwhile, this needs exposure - Norm does get it.

Gee, think AlG will pick up on these essays and run with them? Well, yeah, I think they will run with something like this -- once they figure out how to spin it.

#2 success has many fathers

I have a pet peeve with these crow pie fests. Ok....I won't read it and someone tell me if I'm right or wrong.

Norm has written an excessively long, blathering, explanation as to why he's changed his mind. His past "wisdom" has been crushed by the heel of reality - and it's past the point where he can reconcile his old views without looking like an old fool.

So rather than just saying..."hey you know what I was wrong"....he makes us suffer through excruciating detail as to why he was was really just so smart to have been just so wrong.

We don't need the transcript of your counseling session Norm. Bottom line is you aren't as brilliant as you thought you were.

#3 2b, a miss. Norm was in our camp from the beginning. Long, yes, but point-by-point shredding of el cubo memes.

#4 doh! Looks like my time would have been better spent reading it rather than posting.

I can say it....I WAS WRONG :-)

#6 Lots of verbiage, but I find it fascinating that this old time Marxist professor has argued all along that the Bush/neocon position is the only morally correct choice in the post-Holocaust world, and that the anti-war people are either deliberately or tacitly choosing to support evil. But he does give point by point why the antis were and continue to be wrong, both morally and practically.
