Pogo, on John Podhoretz:

What has gotten into liberals/leftists in this country? Reading the comments here, I’m simply dumbfounded that they don’t seem to understand that under the next Republican administration, we can find just as many “violations of law” as they think they saw under Bush. If authoring a memo that outlines the boundaries of what constitutes permissible interrogation methods in a manner that you disagree with is now criminal conduct, why shouldn’t that same logic be applied to judgments that have been and will be made by members of the Obama administration?

It seems that liberals have come to the collective conclusion that any opposition to their beliefs is by definition illegitimate, and therefore they have a more or less free hand to act out in manners that would seriously damage or destroy long-standing institutions in this nation, one of the most important of which is that losing elections doesn’t mean losing your freedom or life.

One of the disturbing trends we see with liberalism in American today is the notion that there is no logic, no rules, no principles. Their only guidance is their own id, unrestrained by the notion that maybe, just maybe, their strongly-held beliefs can be disagreed with in good faith by their political opponents.
