As always the invective in this post is solely attributable to me

George Will uses unacceptable invective:

There are the tantrums -- sometimes both theatrical and perfunctory -- of talking heads on television or commentators writing in vitriol (Paul Krugman's incessant contempt, Ann Coulter's equally constant loathing).

Did George Will just compare Paul Krugman to Ann Coulter? To write that, Will must have been very angry, temporarily insane or just plain mendacious.

A new low for George Will. He thinks he is being clever in his vitriol towards Krugman. Foolishly angry George Will.

    Odor of Mendacity (5.00 / 2) (#1)

    Harvey 'Big Daddy' Pollitt:
    There ain't nuthin' more powerful than the smell of mendacity!

    The odor with George begins (at least) with briefing gate. He has been a GOP shill for a number of years.

    Will is a common fixture in small-town papers across the country, and knows that most of his readers do not have regular access to Paul Krugman's op-eds, so he can mischaracterize them with impunity. So besides mendacity, he's being disrespectful of his readers.

    He's obviously resentful (fearful) of the vast amount of superior journalistic writing that has been published on the web. He's feeling increasingly irrelevant. This is his latest counterattack on those who are aware of his true agenda: Catapault elitist propaganda.

    Yes, you have to watch those small town people... They don't got no ed u cation, have never heard of the  Enter Net and are just pawns to be pushed around by Will...

    I have long noted that the Left and the Right are just opposite sides of the same coin.

    But at least the Right shows a smidgen of respect for those folks west of NEW YORK CITY.

    also "long noted" that you're a social liberal. The last time I heard a note like that was after a baked bean dinner.
