I watched the Frank Wolf video again today, and I realized it reminded me of something.  First, take a look at the Wolf video again:

Now watch this:

Just to be absolutely clear here:  I am not suggesting a moral equivalency between Frank Wolf and Robert Mugabe.  Mugabe is a thug, Wolf is not.  Mugabe is a ruthless dictator with a long history of human rights abuses.  Wolf has been a champion of human rights the world over.

You do not have to agree with the tactic of sticking a camera in a politician’s face to recognize that thuggish tactics are thuggish tactics, no matter where they happen.

As of yet, Wolf has not yet apologized.
