Via Best of the Web (link at the right, I’m lazy), Larry Miller reports in the Weekly Standard that punk rocker bands who dis the Prez onstage had probably better watch their ass.
Perhaps I should rethink my fear (well, not exactly fear…more like sad resignation) that someday I’ll be old and today’s kids will be running the country. We might do worse than some of the kids in Mr. Miller’s article:
Black boots and nose rings and tattoos, but they knew, to a person, what was right. They might not be able to point out the no-fly zones on a map, but they knew what was right. If we Americans fight terror all the way it’ll take many years, and neither Trent Lott’s kids nor Tom Daschle’s kids are going to fight it. It’ll be fought by a lot of the kids at the “Blockbuster” Pavilion, though. Jack’s oldest just signed up a few months ago out of college. A five-year hitch for an Army specialty. An important one. In harm’s way. Jack’s a little scared. Wouldn’t you be?
Yep. But I’d go myself if they’d take me.
