What a Difference Five Years, 2,500 Military Casualties, and a Whole Raft of Gay-Bashing by the GOP Make

Andrew Sullivan, 9/16/01:

The middle part of the country--the great red zone that voted for Bush--is clearly ready for war. The decadent left in its enclaves on the coasts is not dead--and may well mount a fifth column.
Andrew Sullivan, 8/2/06:
The notion, advanced by Lieberman, that criticism of the president's war leadership is somehow inappropriate when the country is in danger gets it exactly the wrong way round, I think. It is precisely because the danger is still so great that criticism is so necessary. That's democracy's strength.
