Obama, the war and the 24 Hour Rule.
2008 July 5
Josh Marshall Talking Points Memo says this about news reports of Obama’s flip on the war:
We’ve seen many examples over the last couple days of reporters egregiously lapping up the McCain camp’s nonsensical spin about Obama flip-flopping on Iraq. But some reporters can get spun so thoroughly that they actually retrospectively rearrange the facts of the campaign to accommodate the McCain camp’s spin. Change the facts to suit the spin, as it were.
