One-sided rules of political debate

The "controversy" over the MoveOn ad is petty and vapid but nonetheless revealing of the double standards governing our political debates.

    Repugs attacked an active soldier...

    Will Roberts... you wondered if our repuglican friends would attack an active duty soldier. Wish I could find a link, but do you remember a few years back, Rumsfeld was visiting a base in Iraq, and a young soldier asked him why they had to scrounge for body armor and armor for their vehicles? I recall the right wing echo chamber going after that poor schmuck. Would be great if Glenn or someone could dig that one up right about now!
