Sullivan's travails...again
Andy is doing it again.
THE WAR CONTINUES: But for us, it's important to remember why we're fighting Saddam. The answer is September 11. Those who want to find some specific evidentiary link between al Qaeda and Saddam don't begin to fathom what war is. It is not the pursuit of one distinct goal after another, depending on the exigencies of international law or diplomacy. That's called foreign policy. War, in contrast, is the attempt to destroy an enemy. The enemy is Islamist terrorism and its state sponsors. Strategically, the overthrow of the Saddam regime is absolutely central to this objective. It will deal another psychological blow to the reactionaries who want to ratchet Islam back a few more centuries and wage war on the free societies of the West. It will remove one huge and obvious source of weapons of mass destruction potentially available to the enemy. It will provide a military base from which to continue the war against al Qaeda and its enablers across the Middle East, specifically in Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia. And it will reassert the global hegemony of the United States and its Anglosphere allies.
Bush's conundrum: Crusade or Imperialism? God or oil? We know on which side Dick Cheney will come down.
(Added) Andy's dream scenario.
Meanwhile Andy is shocked...shocked, I tell you, about Bush's new AIDS commisioner.
BUSH'S INSULT TO GAY AMERICANS: What on earth is a fire-breathing, Bob Jones University alum doing on the presidential commission on AIDS? Check out this man's views here as noted in the Washington Post. AIDS is a "gay plague." With the overwhelming number of victims worldwide being straight, and a majority of new HIV cases in America non-gay ones? "Homosexuality is not inborn biologically, just as incest and bestiality are not inborn." Is the Bush administration equating gay citizens with people who practice incest? Is it saying that the vice-president's daughter's relationship is as immoral or as arbitrary as having sex with animals? Is it asserting, against every serious psychological study, that homosexuality is chosen like becoming a dentist? If it is, then please let us know and we can think and vote accordingly.
Andy got in bed with George Bush and just woke up. That sound you hear is Sullivan trying to chew his arm off....
