Billmon: Eye of Newt

It seems just about everybody in Left Blogostan has been taking a swing at Newt Gingrich over his recent remarks suggesting most of the troops should be withdrawn from Iraq forthwith – victory for democracy or no victory for democracy.

Jane Hamsher at Firedoglake has a fairly typical reaction, to wit: How dare that right-wing blowhard asshole advocate withdrawal after sliming as traitors anyone on the left who suggested the same thing!

Now I always enjoy watching people take potshots at Newt Gingrich (and if Cheney wants to take a real one at him with his Bushmaster I wouldn't mind that either) but in this case the shooters may be missing the real target.
