ANOTHER NARRATIVE CONTRADICTION

(h/t Atrios)

I've noted before that wingnut agit-prop often collapses from internal contradictions and the newest example is courtesy of Tim Pawlenty, as noted by Steve Benen.  Pawlenty made this claim:

Any doofus can go to Washington and maintain the status quo. And that’s what we’ve got in the White House and the Congress in terms of the attitude about their willingness to tackle these issues.”

Benen points out the problem:

For a while now, it was a given in Republican circles that Obama was a wild-eyed radical trying to undo the entire American experiment, turning everything we hold dear upside down. The president, we were told, was responsible for pursuing too much change, too quickly. It led conservatives to stand athwart history, yelling, “Stop.”

And yet, Pawlenty apparently doesn’t see it that way. Obama, we’re told, isn’t radical enough when it comes to change.
