Some September 11 observances will

Some September 11 observances will no doubt be, from our point of view, too therapeutic and not sufficiently warlike. President Bush, however, is striking the right note. The Washington Times reports that the Commander in Chief, “gesturing with his right hand clenched into a fist, added: ‘As long as terrorists and dictators plot against our lives and our liberty they will be opposed by the United States Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force and Marines!'” And not only opposed, but, as George Will wrote in the column that Deacon linked to earlier today, “smashed.”
