LAT sop to Turks

Apparently to take the pressure off the lunatic congressional Democrats, who propose to stick their collective finger in the collective eye of our allies the Turks, the LAT this morning chastises President Bush and General Petraeus for not doing more to help Turkey wipe out the PKK in northern Iraq. The LAT wants the U.S. to join Turkey in a military adventure under a NATO umbrella aimed at eliminating the PKK. In other words, go ahead with the finger but put some American lives at risk so the Turks won't get mad. Makes sense if it's not your life and you have no qualms about risking others for a political purpose.
