My little joke blog headline was meant to add a far-fetched nomination to the list of the president's critics who are receiving awards these days. It's taken a bit of cartoon tone-deafness to turn that into "Jim Borgman Opines that Garry Trudeau Should Win the Next Pulitzer." My alternate headline was, "Molly Ivins Promoted to Sainthood." In case you don't get it, that's a joke.

We're all supporting the troops: supporting bringing them home NOW, getting them decent care in the VA hospitals, getting them properly equipped in wherever they are. Who has criticized Bush, let alone loathed him, has disparaged our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines? It's the leadership, not the led I disparage, loathe, and criticize. Your comment strikes me a reactionary and out of line, and I <i>was</i> enjoying your blog. Garry has succeeded in doing what no other Bush loather has been able to do – support the troops yet criticizes the president.
