The symptoms of the prion disease are beginning to become so obvious that even some of our more prominent pundits are beginning to notice them. For example, even former Karl Rove life-coach Ron Fournier has noticed the severe lack of Abraham Lincolns in the current GOP presidential candidates. And noted climate-denialist and baseball drone George Effing Will has staked out the bold position that many of these candidates have gone so far around the bend that they've crossed some kind of termination barrier.
It is, therefore, especially disheartening that Cruz, who clerked for Chief Justice William Rehnquist and who is better equipped by education and experience to think clearly about courts, proposes curing what he considers this court's political behavior by turning the court into a third political branch.
The problem, of course, is that, for all his expensive education and lengthy experience, Ted Cruz is a nut. And the larger problem is that the institutions of the conservative movement that has cosseted George Effing Will for his entire adult life, and from which he derives his endlessly mysterious influence as a "thinker," were the places where Republicans first ate the monkeybrains containing the prion disease in the first place.

“Charles P. “Charlie” Pierce is an American sportswriter, political blogger, author, and game show panelist.”
It already is, ya dope!
As someone who has had a close relative die of prion disease, I take great offense at Esquire making a joke of prion disease. It is an always fatal, devastating disease, that destroys the brain. Is it OK now to joke about Beau Biden’s brain cancer?
Who knew Esquire was still being published...
And denigrate their betters.
the rant is lacking substance
