    The same old, same old Armageddon

    Those comments by Ms. Goldfeder are a perfect illustration of why Obama has mounted a credible insurgency. Is Ms. Goldfeder sending her children or grandchildren to fight unending wars in the Middle East? I doubt it. That's for rural white trash and colored kids from the inner city.
