Ole Chuckie must have been busy for the last couple of weeks, too busy to follow the latest on Fox News. Because in his Soapbox rant of 11/21/03, Letters, he's still flogging the idea that everything's going great in Iraq, it's just the bad reporting of the sinister Liberal Press that makes things look bad.
C'mon, Chuckie, that's like, so, two weeks ago! The Patriotically Correct line now for true-blue war lovers is that we're bringing down the Iron Hammer, crushing a walnut with a sledgehammer and all that, and it's about time we started kicking some ungrateful Iraqi booty, too!
Of course, Chuckie spents a lot of this one talking about how much our troops are being attacked. So maybe he's just having trouble integrating the latest approach with the previous one.
It's not so hard Chuckie: Just drop the old version and use the new one. Rummy says it, Fox repeats it and you believe it. Just go with the flow, Chuckie.
Chuckie Watch bonus: This article by Nick Confessore gives a good sketch of the publisher of Chuckie's book Ain't No Rag, Regnery Press: Hillary Was Right, American Prospect 01/17/00:
<< Welcome to the world of Regnery Publishing--lifestyle press for conservatives, preferred printer of presidential hopefuls, and venerable publisher of books for the culture wars. Call it--gracelessly but more accurately--a medium-sized, loosely linked network of conservative types, with few degrees of separation and similar political aims. Just don't call it a conspiracy. >>
