Quote of the Day

From The Unpaid Bill, about Phil Donahue's ignorant comment that we've "become a warrior nation":
I'm not sure what history class Phil skipped, but we have always been a warrior nation. Our country was born out of the lifeblood spilled during the American War for Independence. It was preserved by the blood spilled on the battlefields by our soldiers. It was expanded by conquest from sea to shining sea. It's only recently that people take the view that if you use force you've somehow failed.
Yup.

Thanks for the hat tip Sir Borepatch. My RSS feed to your blog must have been down for a few days as I just got this today.
