Everyone now respects our intelligence services. Somehow they have forgiven or forgotten what they felt about them after we invaded Iraq and no weapons of mass destruction were found. As I remember it, back then the media thought that our intelligence agencies were a bunch of war criminals who created false intelligence in order to start a war.

Bush lied, soldiers died they said back then.

Now they embrace the national security state that spies on everyone with the excuse that they are fighting terrorism. I guess their views have “grown”.

LOL, remember when they hated the FBI? Now its just local police, ICE and the Border Patrol.

I think the popular term is ‘evolved’.
