| So you guys are afraid of questioning? What a bunch of fucking pussies, and what a stupid and false issue. How about real issues? The Republicans looked ridiculous last night, what with Rudy and Romney arguing with each other like a couple of old queens in a gay bar, McCain sounding like an Alzheimer's patient and Huckapee sounding like a buffoon, and Duncan Tancredo looking totally lost. The whole country was laughing.

Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.
