Kevin Drum, of The Washington Monthly points to a story in The Washington Post revealing that what we all knew was true: Republican slurs at imaginary Democrats who want to cut off funds for the Iraq war or are tacit allies of terrorists are fiction when they're not outright lies. The WAPO story notes that
"Pressed to support these allegations, the White House yesterday could cite no major Democrat who has proposed cutting off funds or suggested that withdrawing from Iraq would persuade terrorists to leave Americans alone."
Drum concludes, "It's about time the straw men started fighting back." Actually, it's long past time, but he's right nonetheless.
