Interesting perspective from Bulgaria:

I just returned from a dinner I had with a couple of friends. The topic eventually meandered into Iraq and the US, NATO, the Weasels, and the UN.
"We shouldn't have waited so long before attacking Saddam."



"We should have just gone in and off’d the guy months ago, last year. There would have been 'outrage' from France, but who cares!"

"We've taken too long. There are too many impediments to our course."

"We have so many people talking against war, now."

So I say: "George Wallace did more to help blacks integrate in the South than most Americans."

Silence.

Wallace was a wake-up call for the US. He was something unconscionable and immoral in our midst. His voice carried, and ironically, helped hasten the collapse of Terrible Ideas.

The longer we wait on this attack, the more we toss the idea out to, oh, the UN, the more emboldened the opposition becomes. Thus, the more vocal they become, and the better our case becomes. They are the modern day George Wallace's: the new torch-bearers of Terrible Ideas.

The current anti-war movement, with its relativism, its unseriousness, its reflexive anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism helps reveal something unconscionable and immoral in our midst. Their voices carry. Although I myself am often stunned at the ugliness that has befallen the opposition, this is ultimately good news.

I say, let the opposition speak! Do not be surprised if your average human can understand stupidity when they hear it.
Cheer up, guys, they're drooling, ham-fisted fools!

Indeed, polls show that Americans’ view of France has hit rock-bottom.

Schroeder's government is collapsing. Every country in Eastern Europe has sided with us. Most Western European countries have sided with us.

We are winning. Massively. We haven't fired a shot and yet we are routing them!

"But Madonna has a new anti-war video coming," a friend warns.

"Revel in it!" I say.

In an ideology that regards humor as suspicious at best, offensive at worst, the Left's attempts at satirizing will fail, due to their poorly-concealed malice and mental indolence. Even when they try to be funny, the smile looks more like the baring of teeth than pleasure.

This has already happened, with George Michael’s "Shoot the Dog." An object lesson in 'not funny,' it merely was mean in an incoherent, ankle-biting way.

Madonna will blow it. It will be malevolent and sanctimonious. The only people who will enjoy it are those who admire Ted Rall's scribblings.

Noisy protestors who claim George W. Bush is Hitler are the best thing for the Right in decades. Decades! Huge golden calves, yellow Stars, masks of George W., swastikas…you couldn’t ask for a better self-immolation.

The vast majority on the Left have inadvertently revealed that they can only be relevant when the issue at hand is trivial: flag types over courthouses, McDonald's wrapper composition, number of owls per acre, hazards of untested lipsticks on cats, proper ergonomics for office chairs, use of "he", "his," or "him" in oral presentations, possible coded dangers in children's drawings, SUV's gas mileage.

Nuclear annihilation? Biological plagues? Waaaaay out of their league.

Reality is again punishing the Left. When countless protesters exclaim that the UN is our only moral choice, and the UN shows its colors by appointing Libya to head the Human Rights Commission…how can it get worse for them?

Well, it will. Once Iraq’s prisons open, the people cheer, documents are aired out, millions fail to die…and we turn our eyes to Iran.

I hope this grand mental breakdown eventually leads to a more coherent, thoughtful Left. It is possible. They weren't always this way.

So cheer up!

And a shout-out to the drones: talk louder!
