Although I should be inured to it by now, I find this type of McArdle-style pundit response to be the most galling. It’s not even Both Sides. They cast the Democrats in vaguely the same role as the mother in the grocery store who is on her phone while her toddler rips items from the shelves: “can’t you DO something about him?”

No one quite addresses why The Party of Personal Responsibility seems to need the Democrats to give them a juice box and tell them it’s nap time.

Governing a country that doesn't believe in civics classes is proving to be a real challenge.

I really enjoy it when you do the relatively straight political reporting. You're good at it! Would that the New York Times featured your column rather than something from a skink dick motherfucker like Brett Stephens.*

* We had a couple guys in to work on our forklifts. We have a lot of forklifts so these guys are like a regular fixture back on the dock. One day last week I was crossing through the dock and I heard one of the guys say to the other" Like that skink dick motherfucker knows how to fix a forklift-"

Ever since then I've been looking for an excuse to call somebody a "skink dick motherfucker" .Now, I'm not exactly sure what a skink dick motherfucker is- I'm pretty sure that Brett Stephens qualifies.
