Sullivan shreds Douthat on his right wing under Bush vs.left wing under Obama moral equivalence
well worth reading the entire thing......but here is a taste.


"The notion that the right under Bush showed anything like the integrity of the left under Obama is preposterous. Ross would like to think so, because it would make his own acquiescence to torture, debt, nation-building and unfunded entitlements look particularly craven and partisan. But reality shows no such equivalence, and I say this with great dismay.

The American right has proven itself more cynical, more power-hungry and less principled than any equivalent group on the left in this past decade. No amount of pirouetting now will erase that fact."

This applies to almost every right wing nut job out there.
