Alex Frantz has a little primer on how to smear Al Gore, and raises an interesting question: What can we make of the likes of Instapundit, who continue to purvey these smears? Surely Glenn Reynolds cannot possibly be so ignorant that he still doesn't know that you can't believe a single thing the right wing says about Gore, especially if a lot of people on the right wing are saying it. When someone - particularly a right-wing source - tells you about the latest evil by Al Gore, you'd have to be a real idiot to respond with anything other than a lot of distrust and questions about what the real story is.Of course, the answer can be gleaned by simply looking at the facts- IP's getting his Rhino on, and has been for a while.
After all, i'ts not like it's a new observation to discover that IP links uncritically to dubious sources that agree with his POV.
