Yid with Lid has a post up taking presidential flack Jay Carney to task for hypocrisy for defending President Obama's August vacation when he attacked President George W. Bush for doing the same in 2001. Carney now acknowledges that you never really do get a vacation as president--the work follows you wherever you are.
Yid with Lid calls Carney's apparent turnaround "hypocrisy." It is not.
Carney is a model of consistency. Today, Carney is a flack spinning Democratic talking points. In 2001, working as a reporter for Time magazine he was a flack spinning Democratic talking points.
