This writer is screaming for an editor.

Makes me recall Churchill's admonition to his frothily-verbose Minister of War:

"Prithee tell me on one side of a single sheet of paper what you plan to do to win this war."

I think he is having a crisis of conscience and needed to work it out on paper. At least he came to the right conclusion, however wordily.

Did anyone have the wit to produce a bedsheet-sized sheet of paper? :-)

His argument is wordy, but this sentence is the Creed of the Left. If we understand that this is the bedrock truth for the Hillary crowd we can form our arguments in better ways.

Because America isn’t perfect, it must be evil. Because Marxist regimes make claims of perfection, they must be good.

The Left judge everything on Intentions.
