The British Guardian agrees with Professor Schaff!

The Guardian, Britain's major left wing newspaper, has this to say about the recent election.

Opponents of the war in Iraq may be irritated at the triumphal notes emanating from Washington and London after Thursday's peaceful election. George Bush - who mentioned the word "victory" no less than 15 times in a recent speech - called the event "historic". Tony Blair went for "extraordinary and inspiring".

Now "opponents of the war" and "the left" are not exactly the same groups; but the overlap is probably pretty good.  And "being irritated at triumphal notes" is pretty close to "not wanting to hear that we are winning in Iraq."  So the Guardian, a left wing legend, basically agrees with the statement that brought Professor Schaff so much grief from our friends at CCK.  I thought that worthy of mention.

I note that I take no position on the truth or falsity of this claim.  Please direct your hate mail to the Guardian.
