It’s pretty common for the media to put way too much focus on intra-party criticism. Not because the criticism is any more valid or because the critic isn’t an absolutely horrible human being in his own right, but because it changes the dynamic of the day-in-day-out “talking point from both sides” news cycle – which, to be frank, is dull as hell. I’m honestly not sure it really rehabilitates the image of the critic, though. I don’t think there’s a person on Earth who doesn’t still think Joe Lieberman is an absolute tool. I doubt Spicer (or Yoo) will fare better.

But then along comes Kissinger to prove me wrong. Washed clean by the tongues of a thousand pundits 😕
