Chuck Asay of the Colorado Springs Gazette is probably the most consistently obnoxious cartoonist who appears regularly on Slate's cartoon page. But I think Chuck has outdone his idiot self this time:

I've heard rumors that the talk-radio noisemakers have taken this angle, but to their credit I haven't seen this line taken by the Bushies themselves. A legitimate question was asked of the Sec-Deaf by a soldier, and will probably result in many soldiers staying alive and/or whole. But to fascists like Asay, any questioning of authority is verboten.
