Wonkette hits the NYT

This Guy Is Our President?: After a bad baseball afternoon (for NY and Chicago, that is), I offer a few sundry remarks. Brad DeLong uses a perhaps too perfect (and some say a bit apocryphal, but so fitting) story as a prelude to a sentiment I'm feeling more and more these days -- "Never yet has a grownup looked me in the eye and said, 'George W. Bush is qualified to be President of the United States.'" Oh, some claim to think so, but deep down, I really wonder if they truly think so. His father, heck, you thought so. You might oppose his politics or the tactics of his family, but he was qualified. I'm sorry -- this guy is not. [more]

Talking about not qualified, I read a pretty unconvincing anti-gay marriage essay in the New Republic recently. Such articles get me talking to the author, since I get annoyed at their reasoning abilities. I transformed this into a more um sane dialogue by writing comments to each of his "points." You can see what I came up with here.

Have a nice weekend, all.
