Thomas Sowell. A welcome voice of sanity in an ever growing world of insanity.

Barack Obama himself started this trend when he warned that his opponents were going to try to scare the public with various charges, including a statement, "And did I say he was black?"
McCain said no such thing. Palin said no such thing.

Thanks for the article. Brilliant, as usual.
The media helped create the charged atmosphere in which some people give misleading answers to pollsters to avoid being stigmatized.
I agree.

"Saddam Hussein's information minister, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf who earned the moniker 'Baghdad Bob' during his break-from-reality news briefings left Iraq in the chaotic months after Saddam's fall in 2003 and surfaced in the United Arab Emirates. It was never clear, however, whether he was questioned and released by coalition forces or if he departed without much notice from troops but with a worldwide following for his surreal spin doctoring that included the pronouncement that Baghdad was secure even as U.S. missiles landed nearby.
Al-Sahaf appeared occasionally on Abu Dhabi TV and inspired an Internet cottage industry of T-shirts and other Baghdad Bob memorabilia. His current whereabouts are uncertain, but some reports have placed him in Qatar."

I’m new here and it’s great to get links to such brilliant writers. I heard of this guy but I did not know he was so consistently brilliant.
