Obama's "Redistributive Change"

What's shocking isn't that Obama bemoaned the Supreme Court's unwillingness to impose "redistributive change" -- or even the fact that his statement that the Warren Court really wasn't terribly activist at all (although it's a chilling insight into his judicial philosophy and what we might expect in terms of nominees).

After all, after one learns that Obama Obama blamed 9/11 on a "failure of empathy," well, what do you expect?

What is shocking is that all this redistribution talk is coming to light only now -- having been conveniently ignored by the press these many months. How is it that "journalists" found time to contact Bridget McCain's friends on Facebook, but couldn't dig up this clip?

I'd be "embarrassed to be a journalist," too.
