It is fascinating how demonized someone like Rumsfeld is by the left. I recall my own vitriol towards Reagan and his cohorts when I was younger. I was so misinformed, but I also was participating in a scapegoating impulse to fit in with my tribe. Had I thought differently, I would have been ostracized much like an ancestry tribal outcast.

I was the same way with Reagan. The other night I saw a rerun of a Tonight Show from 1975, with Carson interviewing him. He was so charming, witty, likable, and informative, it had me once again wondering what I was thinking. Or even who I was.
