Begala Calls Cheney a 'Sociopath' — Then Apologizes to Sociopaths

WashPost's Ignatius Relies on Hillary Defender With Undisclosed Ties
One of the odder pieces appearing during the past week in connection with the Hillary Clinton email and private server scandal was David Ignatius's attempt to deny that it's a scandal at all in Thursday's Washington Post.
