Whether you like it or not, Zack represents where America is going. Principle, the constitution, rule of law -- no longer register. Everything is politics now, though in the heat of debate you only call it politics when your opponents do it. When you do it, it's "protecting America". Patriotism, once the last refuge of scoundrels, is now the first. The law is what the Red Queen says it is, or the VP, or the pundits on Fox. Even judges know that. Be nice to Zack -- he might be your next Deputy Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security.
