A very important Daily Howler.

Of course, this isn't the first time that Bush supporters have tried to innoculate the Administration's foreign policy from criticism by smearing critics as anti-semites. Lucianne Jnr. did it last March, and Chris Hitchens made the same baseless claim in Slate In June. Dick Durata also notes this slimy tactic in the comments below.

Brooks's column is aptly named "The Era of Distortion." But it's Brooks who's telling the big lie.

Update: Links added, and corrected to reflect that the Hitchens article was published in June.
