WorkingForChange-Boykin's bizarre beliefs: "If anyone has given aid and comfort to the enemy, Boykin has. During the past several months, the general -- who is deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence and charged with finding high-profile targets, such as Osama bin Laden -- has appeared at conservative Christian pulpits around the country, often in uniform, to declare the war on terror a 'spiritual battle.' His foolish, bigoted remarks will be repeated ad nauseam on Arab TV and used to buttress the view of Islamic extremists, who insist the United States has launched a latter-day crusade against Islam. If you listen to Boykin, perhaps we have."


It is hard to understand how the Dixie Chicks could be widely criticized for their remarks as unpatriotic, but giving the enemy free recruiting posters draws little criticism from conservatives.
