Not the Village Voice, Not Mother Jones, Not the ACLU

The latest critics of Bush and the Iraqi fiasco aren't card carrying members of the ACLU (at least I don't think so), nor do they hang at the Berkeley faculty lounge. 

Look where this diatribe against the administration appeared. . .and while you're at it, check out the letters to the editor section.  The Bush-lied--thousands-died attitude is popping up in the strangest places. 

"If I’ve lost Walter Cronkite," Lyndon Johnson lamented after the CBS anchor editorialized against the Vietnam debacle, "I’ve lost the war." What do you suppose LBJ would have said if he'd lost the families of military men and women?
