OOPS
I rarely find cause to comment on anything Steven Den Beste of USS
Clueless writes, because he's normally so thorough in his analysis that
there's simply nothing left to say. However, as I mentioned recently,
I'm trying to be more watchful of the criticisms I read to see if
they're attacking bad consequences, or merely suspect motivations.
In a post on a 9/11 family member being critical of the administration's handling of 9/11, Steven points out
that this guy (Bob McIlvaine) is also one of the famous "9/11 family
members" who went on record criticizing the Bush campaign commercial
with 9/11 imagery in it. This guy is also a member of the stinky hippy
organization "Peaceful Tomorrows", so he obviously has a political
agenda that's in line with trying to make Bush look bad.
But whatever his personal motivations might be, no matter what kind of
utopian peacenik ostrich he is, he might still be right on the point
he's making - a stopped clock is right twice a day, that sort of thing
- so let's set aside his motives for a second and examine his actual
complaint to see if it's valid. Regarding 9/11, he said:
"No one wants to take any responsibility"
Well... that was a waste of time.
You see, Mr. McIlvaine, your complaint is completely without merit because Al Qaeda has ALREADY taken responsibility!
But at least my conscience is clear, knowing that I gave him a chance.
