Joe Klein Does the Right Thing

And so I finally forgive Joe Klein for his New Yorker review of Do The Right Thing. The whole post on Swampland is here:
To put it as simply as possible, McCain--and his cohorts--are trying to score political points against the President in the midst of an international crisis. It is the sort of behavior that Republicans routinely call "unpatriotic" when Democrats are doing it. I would never question John McCain's patriotism, no matter how misguided his sense of the country's best interests sometimes seems. His behavior has nothing to do with love of country; it has everything to do with love of self.
Anyone else out there find it interesting that the same crew of neocons that are attacking the President today for not being supportive enough of Iranians were the same bunch that wanted to bomb them 6 months ago?
