CHANGE: Oh my: Majorities of liberal Democrats now support drone strikes, keeping Gitmo open.For liberals, it is important to express self-righteous moral indignation. Their feeling of moral superiority is to be taken seriously. The underlying issue is irrelevant.It’s as if all that international-law, humanitarian, have-you-no-decency crap was just . . . crap. And partisan crap at that.
No secret, but nice to make it clear. To all the people who were yammering about this in 2007-2008: Don’t waste my time in the future. Or yours.
