Shame! Shame! Shame!

That's not for Eliot Spitzer. It's what the LAT says to President Bush this morning in an editorial. If you disagree with the LAT, that is, if you don't do what the LAT wants you to do then you are shameful, the LAT editorial seems to say. Today's subject is Bush's veto of the bill that would have outlawed waterboarding and other enhanced interrogation tactics. The LAT takes the position that it is the authority on such matters and that anyone who doesn't agree is to be shamed.

The LAT is at least consistent. It takes the same position on global warming, Iraq, Blackwater, terrorist surveillance and many other issues. Shame on anyone who doesn't agree with the LAT.
