I didn't like George Bush and pretty much every little thing he did annoyed me, but I didn't think everything which annoyed me was somehow a big deal. But the right really just goes after
every little thing because they know that eventually drudgico will pick some of it up and Chuck Todd will be blathering about it. Back in the day we'd be like uh, hey, uh, isn't torture, you know, bad? Now they have to settle for "some phrase I dislike for reasons I cannot articulate."
