Tom Friedman, or, as some of you may know him, Mr. "Never Saw An Iraq War I Wouldn't Love", spent most of 2002-2003 arguing that the US should invade Iraq, and anyone who disagreed with him was obviously a communist and a homosexual. So, you can imagine I was wiping my frontal lobes off of my monitor when I read this in his latest column today:
We cannot liberate Iraq, and never could. Only Iraqis can liberate themselves, by first forging a social contract for sharing power and then having the will to go out and defend that compact against the minorities who will try to resist it. [emphasis mine]OH MY GOD!!! It would have been fucking great, I mean absolutely amazing if someone has said this two years ago. Oh wait, a bunch of people did. Problem was, almost none of them had a column for the New York Times. God bless that liberal media. Fuckers.
