On the spying scandal
Jeff Goldstein has a great post with many, many links. But the best part is Steve in Houston's comment.
It's long and worth the read but here's a snippet that basically summarizes:
"If you begin with the assumption that, say, the New York Times thinks the war on terror and the war in Iraq are just a bunch of bullshit, then this kind of reporting makes complete and perfect sense. Same with Dean’s and Murtha’s and Pelosi’s and Kerry’s pronouncements.
It’s the kind of fundamental difference that I’m afraid can never really be bridged, much like that between pro-choicers and pro-lifers."
Explains a lot.
