Blogger Andrew Olmstead has been killed in Iraq. Evidently he had a post prepared in case of the event.
His final post here.
See additional pertinent links here.
This is an entry I would have preferred not to have published, but there are limits to what we can control in life, and apparently I have passed one of those limits. And so, like G'Kar, I must say here what I would much prefer to say in person. I want to thank hilzoy for putting it up for me. It's not easy asking anyone to do something for you in the event of your death, and it is a testament to her quality that she didn't hesitate to accept the charge.


thanks to andy and to all of his ilk that have gone before him.
it's people like him who understand that freedom is not free and that we must defend it where ever we can. with bullets and bombs if need be.
if we allow the libs to prevail its only a matter of time before this world is doomed.
