As always, you demonstrate the value of librarians in ensuring history is not highjacked, and in pursuing objective truth. With Taibbi the problem isn't that he changed his politics; it's that he didn't. He remains a liberal, which still means tolerant to me, to him, and to other liberals.

The term "liberal" has been highjacked by authoritarians. Then again, it always is. Consider the People's Democratic Republic of Korea. It tortures its people, fears Democracy above all else, and is no more a Kingdom than France.
