re: Integrity over blind partisanship
Some historical perspective from CNN/Time-Warner (Time Magazine).
With reference to my blog of a few weeks back: I still don't subscribe to Big Lie, but it's become painful to watch Big Excuse losing ground, and devastating to see Big Deal losing the lives of occupying soldiers.
We're still left with Big Oops. Admitting to it as a nation may take a greater measure of collective integrity than has been required in a very long time.
