Whatever became of the concept of the loyal opposition? Just a few short months into the Obama administration and the Republicans, unable to structure a rational policy for their party, are shrieking treason and disaster. Now disowning the eight years of folly and maladministration they are carping about the Speaker of the House's knowledge of their illegal deeds as if this is tantamount to approval and complicity; another pathetic example of political jiu-jitsu.
Unwilling or unable to just own up to the fact that the Bush administration knowingly committed torture in pursuit of trying to justify blaming Iraq for the 9-11 attacks planned and carried out by Saudis, the salient issue has become whether Nancy Pelosi was informed of their misdeeds or not. What skewed logic.
Not surprisingly, our home grown neo-cons, Dick Ford among them, are eager to pile on, to be counted among the thoughtless and the slanderers. Unable to structure a rational dissent they instead resort to misdirection and denial.
