A person likes the perks and comes to believe he 'deserves' them. Then, of course, he becomes scared of losing these perks. And once that happens, 'they' have him in their pocket. This is an old story, often told. Klein is no different.marynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-2725959602835459742013-02-15T03:17:58.930-06:002013-02-15T03:17:58.930-06:00The weakness and bad faith of Brooks' columns ...The weakness and bad faith of Brooks' columns are sometimes readily evident, but sometimes discerning this requires knowing the context he deliberately admits. Brooks looks even worse over time, because as a hack and bullshitter, he simply can't stay consistent. It's all the more hilarious given that conservatives pretend to stand for eternal truths, consistency and the rest. As Cleek said over at Balloon Juice, conservatives stand for the opposite of what liberals want, updated daily. There's no philosophical consistency; there's only the consistency of tribal dogmatism, and screwing the perceived opposition, which includes, oh, more than half the country. <br /><br />And while Klein does some good work in sifting through and presenting data, boy, the fawning over Brooks and the rest is just pathetic. <br />Batocchiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02193752396025012825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-82058009693434324282013-02-14T11:00:53.668-06:002013-02-14T11:00:53.668-06:00Brilliant, as usual, thanks!Brilliant, as usual, thanks!OBShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11290768768025981403noreply@blogger.com
