State of the Union |
I know its a day late for any topical entries about the state of the American democracy, but if you haven't already, take the time to read the Washington Post's epic four-part story on the dark heart of Dick Cheney. The picture alone is terrifying.
And when you're done with that, look at this story by a New Republic correspondent who took a ride on the National Review cruise. I never thought I would actually feel sorry for William F. Buckley, but lo and behold! He's actually the (quasi) good guy for once. Granted, the fulmination that Buckley directed at liberals, New Dealers, civil rights marchers, and other "Communist sympathizers" in the 1950s and 1960s was the rhetorical dress rehearsal for today's neo-conservative fuckheads, but you'd never catch Buckley claiming that "there was nobody better than Don Rumsfeld."
