Who cares about what Jonathan Zimmerman thinks? Jordan Zimmermann just pitched a no-hitter for the Nats yesterday (first no-hitter by a Washington-based team since 1931).

Better watch who you laugh at. I just read a Time magazine piece by Camile Paglia (sp?) who said that ISIS isn’t evil, they are just rejecting “Western ideas”. Does that mean that we should consider the extreme Left of this country as simply terrorists in disguise?
