The I-like-to-write-about-what-the-President-who-lives-in-my-head-tells-me brigade is growing:

• Tom Friedman (via AoSHQ) writes a speech where the President accepts it on behalf of the US military.
• Peggy Noonan (via Just One Minute) likes the idea, too.
• And, of course, there was Chris Buckley’s nonsense from yesterday*.

Apparently none of them actually read what the President has already said on the subject. Which is to say: he’s happy enough to praise the military, in their place. Which is distinctly behind advocates for climate change.

Crossposted to Moe Lane.

*(“How is this different than what Mickey Kaus wrote? – ed.” Two reasons: first, Mickey was writing advice, and advice that he already knew was going to be rejected out of hand. Second, I don’t mess with Mickey if I can possibly help it. – ML”)

PS: Yes, I’d like to stop writing about this, too.
