But in the process there also began a professional devolution, as questionable legal and ethical methods were excused in the name of the greater good. We got the Ellsberg pilfered documents, the blank check of "unnamed sources," trips to Hanoi and Paris to meet the enemy, Peter Arnett broadcasting gloom and doom live from Baghdad — all culminating in the two-bit forgeries used for the "higher" cause of unseating George Bush. Daniel Ellsberg, Jane Fonda, and CBS may have done things that were legally wrong (like the latter's promulgating fraudulent government documents to defame a government official), but in postmodern logic they were morally "right" given their superior knowledge, character, and progressive intentions.

Devastating indictment.

You are so right-that is writing of devastating quality and insight.

Especially the first line of that paragraph-

But in the process there also began a professional devolution, as questionable legal and ethical methods were excused in the name of the greater good.

Absolutely dead on. And scary. And we have been LIVING with this ideology from our MSM for a LONG TIME.

Thank GOD for the internet, talk radio and Fox News and writers like the author of this article and their publishers, who so clearly nail the deception.

And notice he doesn't mention Kerry anywhere, except by implication.
