Eleanor Clift nails it for Newsweek
Virginia Senator-elect Jim Webb is the rare Washington figure who doesn't suck up to power.
"It’s justice long overdue for a president who has so abused the symbols of war to get his comeuppance from a battlefield hero who personifies real toughness as opposed to fake toughness. Bush struts around with this bullying frat-boy attitude, and he gets away with it because nobody stands up to him. Bush could have left Webb’s initial response stand, but no, he had to jab back—“That’s not what I asked you.” Webb is not one to be bullied. He knows what real toughness is, and it’s not lording it over people who are weaker than you, and if you’re president, everybody by definition is weaker"...
..."Webb could have asked how the Bush girls are doing, partying their way across Argentina".
