The Washington Post's William Arkin Gets His Reply
Posted by: Hugh Hewitt at 6:47 PM

Uncle Jimbo at Blackfive responds to the WaPo's William Arkin's slam at active duty military speaking their mind about the war.  Arkin, very representative of the anti-war MSM, wants to shut down military speaking about the war --it gets in the way of the defeatism overwhelming the Beltway.

Uncle Jimbo does use traditional military language, so the faint hearted are forewarned..

Here's the original Arkin column.  Keep in mind that Arkin is the Post's national and homeland security columnist.  Arkin's bottom line: Shut up and serve.

Powerline's John Hinderaker has more.

Here's a piece I wrote on Arkin from early 2003.

I will replay an October 16, 2003 interview with the old leftist Arkin on today's program so the audience can hear how he sounds.
