Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Your Wednesday MorningTakedown


So this might become a regular feature....

Today's Wednesday morning takedown is from Gin And Tacos.  In it, the last feeble remnants of Sarah Palin's dignity - previously detectable only by an electron microscope - are demolished.

In this takedown, Ed uses a nice structural framework of an academician making a broad point about some cultural norm.  He then circles in like a raptor towards a mouse, finally culminating in a verbal evisceration that is both erudite and brutal.

Enjoy!
