Excellent article with an especially good closing paragraph, IMO. The best point is the connection of Bolshevism with blame because it creates a clarity about the current _resident in a way few have.

You mock him (Woodward) because he has become an obstacle in the forward march of progress and in the post-journalistic era, snark is the easiest and cheapest weapon in your social arsenal. The one that denotes superiority through contempt, rather than truth.

Woodward might say that the facts matter, but that's old-school journalism thinking. There are no more facts, only fact checks. And those fact checks are meant to prove that we are right and they are wrong. That is the purpose of the media. It's the purpose of new journalists who spin coverage and cut and paste talking points from the White House ...

The Washington Post and New York Times should run this piece - - but they won't - not open-minded enough. That's my guess.

Greenfield's clarity ... comforting and spooky at the same but time... always worth the time.

My computer apparently did not update Sultan Knish until this evening. I have belatedly posted the article but it may be deleted as a dup. Hence I am pinging to expat1000’s post.

Questioning authority should only be done when you the questioner, rather than the authority
During the reign of the eeevil Reagan regime these very same libs were driving around in battered rusted out VW's and Volvos that were held together with "Question Authority" bumper stickers.
