The slightest reversal would have resulted in a jolt to our prestige giving rise to all kinds of catastrophe; the problem was not only to conquer but to conquer again and again, perpetually; our forces would be drained off in the attempt."

It's already gone. Nevermind then. 56255@blogcritics.org Tue, 6 Apr 2004 11:25:52 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/04/06/110606.php#comment-56254 I think it it totally cool that this article, titled "History Repeats," is repeated twice in the Etc. column. That's the universe stepping in to provide a little unprovoked humor. (And this comment will look really pointless when the repeat-post is eventually removed in the future . . . but I just had to do it.) 56254@blogcritics.org Tue, 6 Apr 2004 11:24:54 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/04/06/110606.php#comment-56252 James, very sensible and I agree entirely with your conclusion. Thanks! 56252@blogcritics.org Tue, 6 Apr 2004 11:17:35 EDT
