Gotta say, I despise sanctimonious liberals of this stripe. Longstoryshort, Christopher Hitchens (not the sanctimonious liberal) used to believe that waterboarding wasn't torture until he was shamed into trying it out for himself. He changed his tune, but didn't really call attention to the fact that he had been wrong before. So Chet Scoville (the sanctimonious liberal) at Shakesville sez
Let's not be so fast to say nice things about Hitchens, though ... I still prefer to listen to people who got it right the first time.One problem-- one of many-- with this self-righteous netcrap is that we, um, lost the last Presidential election. If we are to win this one we will have to depend on many people who have been wrong before to get it right this time, no?
