The most egregious sucking up to the GOP, of course, surrounded the run-up to, and the early days of, the Iraq War. Now, with the public overwhelmingly aware that the war is a quagmire, it's the right time for such retrospectives.
Does anyone know of a great compendium of rah-rah war quotes from *those* days, including the media's standing ovation for Colin Powell's shameful (I mean "compelling!") UN presentation and all the giddy "embedded" journalism during the ground assault?
