Ron Brynaert Is Shrill

He writes:

Why Are We Back In Iraq?: Bush Knowz History: President George Bush had this to say on Conservative Print Media Journalists Day:

That's what makes this more difficult -- I don't know what Harry Truman was feeling like, or Franklin Roosevelt. But I do know -- I'm sure there were moments of high frustration for them %u2013 but I do know that at Midway, they were eventually able to say two carriers were sunk and one was damaged. We don't get to say that.

Roosevelt didn't get to say that either, Mr. President, because we sank four Japanese carriers in the battle of Midway.

I learned that in grade school...

And, of course, none of the conservative media journalists learned any WWII history either.
