Like other liberal writers, he confuses, or pretends to confuse, laziness with common sense. And the same with Fred’s speaking style. It’s plain, direct, honest, and to my mind exactly what I want to hear, not some two-bit orator pretending to emote at me like Al Gore or Jean Kerri.
Liberals are so far out of it, they don’t even recognize it when someone behaves like a normal person.
But Churchill was the best of both worlds, he took naps, but, was considered one of the best orator ( ever ) who spoke with a lot of common sense, but was no two-bit with a lot of hot air and BS. he meant what he said.
Reality has no role in liberalism.
