Serious liberal sickness

Megan McArdle posting at instapundit, has a good post on Kevin Drum's ridiculous assertions about the NARAL ad. Something she didn't address caught my attention. Drum's post included this:
on the overall scale of outrageousness, I have to say that this ad ranks pretty low compared to conservative benchmarks like Willie Horton and the Swift Boat lunatics.
This is why liberalism has gone completely beserk.

The Willie Horton ad was completely truthful. So were the Swift Vets. The NARAL ad was a total falsehood. Compare the Horton ad to what Al Gore said about Horton on the political stump. Compare the Swift Vet ads to what John Kerry said about Vietnam vets. There is nothing even remotely close to the NARAL ad to use as a comparison.

Remember, Drum is supposedly considered to be a rational liberal. I guess that is only because the sick wackos further on the left have abandoned all pretense of logic.

"rational liberal" - now there's an oxymoron.

Drum is hardly a "rational liberal". He's actually been denying the scope of Saddam's murderous reign, denying the number of mass graves found.
