Do not shut up

Neal Pollack is encouraging everybody that holds views on the war to shut up.
Of course, I find that most of his tirade goes against the thousands of voices protesting the war, but that would be me. I fear when somebody tries to limit my right to denounce oppression, tyranny and reckless wars. But that would be me.

the differences in their political views reduced to a choice between the grilled or potted shrimp

That irresponsible piece , in which the main argument is the personal attack, disqualifying the writers and presuming of a cynical and much more mature attitude towards this war is frankly stupid, if not downright pro-war, lightly masked as a “neutral” too-cool-to-touch-reality tv show humor.
What is this guy thinking, that by ignoring the elephant it will go away? Or is he merely trying to emulate Bush and issue edicts ordering to be silent? Useful idiot.
