This reminds me of all the people who blamed “neocons” for all that went wrong in the Bush years, but not the neocons’ bosses — Rumsfeld, Bush, Cheney, Ashcroft, Gonzales none of whom were famously neoconservative.

Do these people actually exist? I’ve probably read hundreds of articles, blog posts, etc. about the Bush years and I can’t recall one that specifically exempts Bush, Rumsfeld or Cheney from blame. I guess I’ll have to keep looking.
