A Shout-Out to Joe Klein Posted by Michael Cohen

Over the years, Joe Klein has taken some hits in the liberal blogosphere, but his takedown of Fred Kagan's wackiness in the pages of Weekly Standard deserves some love:

On the day that John Yoo's remarkable torture memo is released, this foolishness is a reminder that none of these people--none of the vicious, mendacious, naive, simplistic, unapologetic, neo-colonialist ideologues who promulgated this disaster--should have even the vaguest claim on the time or tolerance of fair-minded people. Fred Kagan's certainty is an obscenity, his claim to expertise a farce.

Damn, someone spiked Joe's Wheaties!
