Only Yesterday

br> -- Mike Showalter br> Austin, Texas /p> p> Mr. Lord: You are exactly right -- we are a long way from 1942! It's absolutely terrible how the Dems have politicized this war on terror. Americans are in the fight for our lives, freedoms, & liberty. The Dems don't even see this -- amazing. Someday Americans as a whole will wake up -- but I hope it's not too late. To win this war on terror we must be united. Good article. br> -- Kathy br> Arizona /p>

I found the most interesting quote in this illuminating article to be the final one, attributed to the New York Times: "(Goebbels') silence is proof of the fact that we have made the unity of our purpose apparent to our enemies."

It's breathtaking to contemplate a time when the Times considered itself to be interested in the unity of American national purpose in keeping fanatical enemies away...even more that the Times actually thought of itself as part of that unity.

p>Mr. Lord has provided another reason, as though any more were needed, for Americans to regard today's Times to be the pathetic, disoriented journal so many have watched it become. br> --
