Got this email from a reader about my earlier post ...
Matt, I'm a big fan of yours, but you don't address the central point in Bluey's response to Dean: that Dean and Hugh were doing the exact same thing to the NRSC three months ago. That was nearly as vitriolic (go read what they wrote about Ric Keller back then,) aimed against Republicans, written as activism... Dean just doesn't want to do it over this issue, which is fine, but then he should have written a column describing why corruption on the Approps Committee is so much less important than a non-binding resolution on whether the troop surge is a good idea.
