re: Lileks on the "ungrateful little wossname."
Hey, I was slightly more civil, wasn't I? If not as eloquent.
Yes, if you only push someone, that makes you better than the one who kicks him.
I'd throw both of you out of the library.
Funny how mad people are at Salam Pax now that he's dared to have an opinion out of line with theirs. Here he was such a friend only a few months ago. It's almost as if they considered him to be a traitor to the cause.
I don't notice Lileks volunteering to go over there and report on conditions and get shot at. He's pretty quick to hold up an American serviceman to rebuke someone who has. The Iraqis owe for that? Huh. We owe for that. We sent him.
He who tells others to stop sneering needs to stop sneering himself.
