The Greatest Generation: The Next Generation

According to a childless Administration spokesperson, the occupation of Iraq has now become, as it ever was, a generational commitment.

In 30 years' time, those who failed to enlist in the service of that commitment will feel a deep sense of guilt, at least when their failing's raised during a debate or they have a deadline and can't think of another column subject. We must prevent such suffering.

That's why I support General J.C. Christian's Operation Yellow Elephant. The General's program puts the "sac"s back in sacrifice.

There's something else you can do, I think. The next time you read a David Gelernter or a John Hinderaker speak of the Iraq war with patriotic pride, fill out this form on his behalf so he can help his offspring make the ultimate sacrifice in time for next Father's Day.

As for Dr. Rice, she may wish to consider adoption.
