Cognitive Dissonance, thy name is Dreier
It is tough to find a better case study in self-negation than the gay-bashing gay Congressman from Rancho Cucamonga. (Well, there's cub reporter JimmyJeff and his 8 inch cut anti-pornographic Johnson.... But I digress.)
A rather remarkable example of his situationality is listed in the report the House Dems just put out on the tactics of the Republicans in the 108th Congress. The report quotes a USA Today story in which Dreier unapologetically admits that where he stands on issues of governance depends entirely on where he sits:
"We have had to do some of the things we criticized once…But now that I'm in the
majority, I have this responsibility to govern. It's something I didn't completely understand when I was in the minority."
[Insert your own snarky comment here about what the personal lives of large numbers of prominent Republicans must be like if the closeted Mr. Dreier is in the majority.]
