This means nothing (sorry, Jung).

A few nights ago I watched "Good Night, and Good Luck," the movie George Clooney made about Edward R. Murrow's fight against McCarthyism. It was very good - there was not a moment of wasted film in the whole 93 minutes.

Last night, then, Keith Olbermann appropriated Murrow when he excoriated Donald Rumsfeld for his comments to the American Legion.

A different point: Haven't Bush, Cheney, and Rumsfeld been wrong about just about everything for the last five years? Isn't it their policies that have put us where we are today, stuck in an untenable position in the Middle East and without any good options for getting unstuck, while they calmly tell us that if we just stay stuck for an indeterminate amount of time longer, the situation will improve? Why would anyone still want go along with their plans? Why would anyone trust them with anything?
