“For the first time since the 9/11 attack, even lowly cable news shows were forced to extensively discuss the government’s extremist theories of power and to debate the need for checks and limits.  All of this put Democrats – who spent eight years flamboyantly pretending to be champions of due process – in a very uncomfortable position. The politician who took such a unique stand in defense of these principles was not merely a Republican but a leading member of its dreaded Tea Party wing, while the actor most responsible for the extremist theories of power being protested was their own beloved leader and his political party.”
