Not Forgetting to Remember
Why are all these people in Big Media and the commentariat going on and on about Nancy Pelosi’s knowledge of enhanced interrogations when it was reported years ago that she knew about it?! This is news?
And as her awareness of these practices is an historical fact that cannot be disputed through ad hominemism or stereotyping or obfuscation or distraction, it must be that she had a reaction to this knowledge. That would be the next thing in this sequence. What did Pelosi do about it? Nothing: she must have thought the interrogation techniques were acceptable because they did not move her morally to protest them or otherwise raise a fuss. That matters, right? She gets to be included in the list of people to be raked over the coals about it —if rake we must, I say.
Anyway, if these Leftist truth and reconciliation committees are going to put on their little show trials to keep the nerds and political junkies from noticing the incipient Socialism, then let us ignore the spectacle. Let us real Americans make sure that everybody knows the facts. Getting the facts out there is going to be coming ever harder to accomplish in such a propagandized atmosphere. But if these lame accusations and all the moral hypocrisy are now the order of the day, then let’s make sure that all the characters get assassinated.
