The Soldier-Citizen Samizdat By Published 9/15/2003 12:02:00 AM Another Perspective After President Bush's address to the nation two Sundays ago, I wrote Jed Babbin that people like Terry McAuliffe, the nine dwarves (or eleven, or whatever) in the Democratic presidential race, and the commentariat "have no appetite -- or aptitude -- for the plain truth."
