Well, I Don’t Feel Guilty
An interesting situation developing with regard to the recent NYT report on the White House PR strategy on the destruction of the CIA videos (via TPM):
The essence of the pushback isn’t about whether the White House knew of the tapes and their destruction or about whether White House attorneys were deeply involved. The White House is focusing narrowly on the issue of whether it has been misleading by minimizing its role or mis-characterizing it. The pushback, in short, is: Hey, we’ve been stonewalling and haven’t said jack about this.
Now that’s a defense.
