Obi-Wan Kenobi Had It Right
Didn't he say something about "many of the truths we cling to...depend greatly on our own point of view?"
Well, that couldn't be more true. For example, here and here are two different takes on the same article (which talks about "what the Democrats aren't doing").
Personally, I think there's a huge difference in someone being misquoted, someone having their quote taken out of context and someone just ramming their foot up their mouth. And until I see this type of story in a more liberal setting (like The Nation or Democratic Underground), to me it's like reading a story from a Texas newspaper about the Washington Redskins.
