No Historical Perspective
It continues to amaze me how our society has a complete lack of historical perspective, from governmental institutions down to the individual citizen. The GOP and people like McCardle exploit this condition, confident they can say anything regardless of what they may have previously written or done. It's how John McCain can portray himself as a moderate while shamelessly pandering to all variety of extremists. And no one challenges it because they can't remember what happened in 2003 (or last month, for that matter).
Without media scrutiny, these people do anything they want without any repercussions. Until now.
Good work, Glenn!
