I just think The Effect of Motivation On Perception, or as Karen would put it, of Partisanship, is remarkable. I continue to watch this with a combination of sadness and amusement. I was aghast then that politicians would be so aroused by the smell of blood that they would risk an impeachment crisis over such trivial "crimes." I an still see the blood lust in the eyes of the impeachment zealots and it still frightens me. That those same partisans who would go to such lengths over so little can't see the parallel with the current situation, who can't see that this is no less trivial than that, and no less risky... The effect of partisanship is powerful, indeed.
