Gotta Love Those Freedom-Promoting Righties

Here's an excerpt from one of yesterday's NewsMax stories:

Michael Reagan, son of the late President Ronald Reagan, is blasting Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean for declaring that the U.S. won't be able to win the war in Iraq, saying Dean ought to be "hung [sic] for treason."

"Howard Dean should be arrested and hung [sic] for treason or put in a hole until the end of the Iraq war!" Reagan told his Radio America audience on Monday.

Reagan was reacting to Dean's comments earlier in the day, when the top Democrat said that the "idea that we're going to win the war in Iraq is an idea which is just plain wrong."

Gosh, and I thought the now-that-we-can't-find-any-WMDs storyline for justifying the Iraq war was to bring democracy and freedom to the middle east. I didn't realize that torture and hangings for political disagreement were part of that equation.
