Just curious: When Colbert was lampooning Bush's apparent right to define reality and rewrite history, he mentioned 1914 and 1941. I'm not convinced this was just transposing numbers - Colbert is exceedingly clever, and because the rest of his speech was so tightly written it is unlikely he just threw those numbers out. Could it be that there is more to it?
Could he have meant that we are confusing the beginnings of an unjust war with a just war? Could he have meant that 1941 was the FIRST Pearl Harbor, as a way of pointing to PNAC's alleged SECOND Pearl Harbor?
I realize this is a stretch - just curious to see what others here might think.
