Molly Ivins on the Shrub's War

Molly Ivins, the journalist whose columns make life bearable for Texas liberals, has an excellent column today castigating the Bush administration for belittling Europeans and Americans who advocate a peaceful solution to the Iraq problem. Molly's right: calling people like me who are simultaneously anti-war and anti-Hussein names is counterproductive. Bush's refusal to admit that maybe the containment/more inspections before a war folks at home and abroad might have a point irritates allies and alienates voters.
