The most recent appearance of the Kum-ba-ya argument, which I put at marginally better than the Hitler argument, was from David Brooks in the NYT today. His thoughts were that-
gee, Obama had a good speech, but he didn't talk enough about missiles. You see all the great Berlin speeches of the past, even though they did emphasize coming together, had the critical missile element. Without the Communists to point missiles at, it's just not the same. All the let's get together stuff is ok, but really just fluff. I wanna hear more about blowin shit up. Tell me who to hate or else I get all confused. Sure Obama mentioned fighting in Afghanistan, but let's face it- it's not the same as starin down the commies and not blinking. What's this co-operation stuff-what are we, in Kindergaten? Lot's of scary shit is going on and there's wars to be a-fightin! No more namby-pamby tearing down of metaphorical walls. If it's not a tangible commie wall with booby traps then I don't wanna hear about it.
