I’ve been asked why I haven’t posted on Weiner’s, weiner.
I just hate these stories.
But Glenn Reynolds makes a great point in Three Sources “Quote of the day”:
I think there’s an important point in the comic value [of Weinergate]: The people who think they’re smart enough, and morally superior enough, to run everyone else’s lives are risible. They’re not smart enough to run their own lives competently, and they’re actually, overall, morally inferior — I mean, John Edwards, DSK, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Barney Frank, Tax Cheat Tim Geithner, just go down the list ” and mocking them is inherently valuable. They pursue power, and they exercise power, as much for deference as anything else. Deny them that, and make it painful for them whenever possible. That’s my take. — Glenn Reynolds
So here’s my post…..
As Timothy Dalrymple’s “The Battle of the Bulge: Is the Weiner War Worth it” asks, and concludes, “no”, I’ll conclude, yes (but only because other’s made it so easy to link/quote for this lazy blogger!).
