Memorial Day 2007

* booman:
" Robert Kagan is the co-founder with William Kristol of the Project for the New American Century and he thinks it will be better for America if the Democrats win the 2008 contest for the Presidency. If that surprises you, you haven't been paying attention. As far as the PNAC crew goes, power isn't about being a Republican or a Democrat, it's about owning both parties. And, fortunately for us, Kagan is spectacularly upfront about this. To understand his mindset it's important to understand that he doesn't divide the world up into left and right, but into interventionist and isolationist. Kagan has representatives in the Democratic Party. They can loosely be described as the members of the Democratic Leadership Council and the writers at The New Republic."
(thnx don) Read the rest.

* meanwhile, Peter Beinart writes this nonsense:
DON'T LOOK now, but neoconservatism is making a comeback — and not among the Republicans who have made it famous but in the Democratic Party.
and George Will calls Beinart a Democrat Who Will Fight For America.

thus we get :
"Harpers: "Percentage of Americans who say they support air strikes against Iran “if diplomacy fails”: 51""
Happy Memorial Day - next year's will be even better, with lots more memories.
