    Tom ("Suck on this") Friedman: Chickenhawk douche bag!

    Yeah, Tom ("Suck on this") Friedman has come a long way. He originally pushed the Iraq invasion as a means to show Iraq that we're bad-ass tough guys. Now, Friedman has changed his tune--we invaded Iraq to bring 'em Truth, Justice and The American Way.

    Friedman, like his fellow neocons, is a chickenhawk douche bag.
