The Wrong Side of History

Pot and Kettle1

Mike Pence called out Russia for being on the wrong side of history on Sunday, in regards to Syria.  And you know, that’s probably true.  History will not look favorably on Russia for supporting Assad’s regime.  But let’s be fair, Pence is on the wrong side of history about basically everything in his own right.  He supports insane legislation against the LGBTQ community, and is personally offended by gay marriage, and he supports the more insane of Trump’s policies, including a big, useless wall across the Mexican border.  He fully supports the tax bill that railroads the vast majority of Americans, and  in general, holds mean spirited views on anyone who doesn’t view the world through his very narrow lens.  Calling someone out on being on the wrong side of history feels, if not ironic, then entirely hypocritical.
