Here's National Review's Jonah Goldberg firing off another salvo in his vaguely amusing years-long war with Center for American Progress Action Fund blogger Matthew Yglesias today:Our working model of Goldberg's brain is a small & rather dusty library, limited to certain arcane interests, where each book/thought is hermetically sealed in a sort of Pandora's Box (though more likely a comic geek's plastic bag) so that no discrete idea comes into contact w/ another, as that could result in confusion, a moment of clarity or an anti-matter explosion.
I am heartened to learn that I continue to "get his goat." I will confess that Matt doesn't get mine much at all. Indeed, I'll often go months without even thinking about the guy or hearing his name.And here's Goldberg in the current (May) issue of Commentary.
The left-wing activist-blogger Matthew Yglesias, echoing the Obama White House view that a crisis is a terrible thing to waste, said the Wall Street meltdown offered a “real opportunity” for “massive socialism.”
Another possible Spongebrain model is that of an eight-yr. old: "Oh yeah? Well, I don't even think about you for months at a time!!"
He'd better stay employed. He's such easy proof that conservatives are stupid.

ReplyDeleteEither Mrs. Goldberg probably makes more than he does, & are no doubt aware that they'll be supporting him (again) soon enough.
