Pity Pick-A-Nick

Hitchens, also.

MOMENTS LATER: Oh, fucking shit, if the video of the mindless dead doesn't play, click the Hitchens link, maybe it'll work at Slate. Though the best suggestion may be not to bother w/ anything at all. Lying down in a darkened room w/ a cold compress over the eyes for a few mins. may help. Think we'll try that right now.

EVEN LATER: Slowly-loading Slate video also posted w/ Weigel's Heart o' Darkness expedition, as he does the field work (leaving the interpretation & musing to Hitchens) w/ the Restorers of Honor themselves:
"[Beck] teaches so much," said Tracy Henchman, who flew to Washington from Florida with her husband, Mark. They're eating some of the pulled pork provided by FreedomWorks to attendees of the pre-rally. "He's the only one of these hosts who doesn't just bitch, but gives you solutions. He teaches us what will happen after bills are passed. I always knew that Congress was passing bills, but I didn't know what was in them!"
Hey, us too! And we're tired of hearing & seeing that fake American President! Equal time!!
"I love Ronald Reagan," said Tracy. "He was what a real American president should be. They should play his speeches all the time, not Obama's speeches. At least they should play them side by side."

A Honky Editor:

"The Other White Meat" almost makes sense here.
