After Corbu

I knew something about the LGF blow-up (won’t link) over the military & progressives panel questioner earlier today (which will inevitably spread far and wide by tomorrow) struck me as weirdly topical, and then I remembered. We’ve just been treated to weeks of the Scott Thomas Who? There is no such Scott Thomas! “Scandal” wherein the right wingers refuse to believe the reports of a soldier serving in Iraq and smear him repeatably. This is somehow consistent with “supporting the troops,” whereas one person’s bad reaction in one instance demonstrates how the left is…evil (I got tired of trying to think of the right colorful metaphor here).
