david brooks vs Richard Cohen

* the other day I mocked bobo for this:

DAVID BROOKS: Badly for the immigrant groups. My lesson from the '60s is: Never look at the rallies. Look at the people who are quietly reacting to the rallies.

In the 1960s, we had Woodstock, peace marches. If you looked at the rallies, you would have thought, "Oh, big liberal era coming." Well, it was a big conservative era, because there were people, like George Bush and Dick Cheney, looking at that and saying, "I don't like those people."

Glenn finds the same talkingpoint in Richard Cohen's latest nonsense

The anger festering on the Democratic left will be taken out on the Democratic middle. (Watch out, Hillary!) I have seen this anger before -- back in the Vietnam War era. That's when the antiwar wing of the Democratic Party helped elect Richard Nixon. In this way, they managed to prolong the very war they so hated.

Amazing how these memes pop up.
