    Wasn't there a time not so long ago...

    when people would be too embarrassed to:

    > Cheer for endless wars that they and theirs will never fight?

    > Politicize the DOJ?

    > Disclose a CIA agent for partisan gain?

    > Demand rule of law while at the same time demanding their perjuring friend be pardoned?

    Who raised these people to be such thoughtless ghouls anyway?
