Oh, yeah, I "question his 'patriotism'"

After all, here's his latest, giving his soi-disant apology:

I said I was bothered by the notion that "the troops" were somehow becoming hallowed beings above society, that they had an attitude that only they had the means - or the right - to judge the worthiness of the Iraq endeavor.

I was dead wrong in using the word mercenary to describe the American soldier today.

These men and women are not fighting for money with little regard for the nation. The situation might be much worse than that: Evidently, far too many in uniform believe that they are the one true nation. They hide behind the constitution and the flag and then spew an anti-Democrat, anti-liberal, anti-journalism, anti-dissent, and anti-citizen message that reflects a certain contempt for the American people.

Gee, don't you mean "anti-DemocratIC?" Because I know how sensitive the Democrat party is to proper grammar. But, if you mean to imply that our troops are actually hostile towards liberal surrender-monkey military-hating journalist Democrats, I'm sure you'd be absolutely correct.

Of course, the fact that people serving in the military (and having actual combat experience in this war) might disagree with your ignorant and uninformed opinions is threatening to your idea of "free speech." Why? Because "free speech" for you apparently means "so long as you agree with my opinions." If our troops don't join the cacophony of your little disrespectful and arrogant echo-chamber, then they obviously must be wrong!

And I note that Mr. Arkin titles his post "the Arrogant and Intolerant Speak Out."

Mr. Arkin, have you looked in a mirror lately? Pot, meet kettle!

So, hell YES, I question Mr. Arkin's patriotism! Frankly, I would strongly urge him to move to *spit* fwance *spit*. I'm sure he'd feel much more at home there, among all his supercilious, snobby, effete, condescending and yellow-to-the-core cowardly soul mates.
