My Own Talking Point
No appalling Republican wrongdoing comes without its own slew of moron talking points, which the Republican media machine repeats with the doggedness of a zombie army. Right now the talking point is to say the Valerie Plame affair isn't seriousâ€â€and that in fact it's Karl Rove et al who're being victimized by "the criminalization of politics." (Via This Modern World.)
I wish the non-Republibots would respond, "Actually, this isn't about the criminalization of politics. It's about the criminalization of crime."

Actually, I have seen comments on this stupid theme on Steve Gilliard, Digby, the Poor Man (I think) - and other sites. All of whom make your central point there. It's really fun to shoot down such a stupid argument.
