Here’s an excellent post at Shield of Achilles, recapping the many leftist bloggers and pundits who blindly supported Scott Beauchamp even as his fables began to unravel; includes quotes from Andrew Sullivan, Matthew Yglesias, Glenn Greenwald (aka Socky the Sockpuppet), Kevin Drum, Joshua Marshall, John Cole, and on and on: The Shield of Achilles: The Beauchamp controversy: Many Foots in Many Mouths.
They really wanted to believe Beauchamp.
