Intellectual Dishonesty

I’ve got my issues with Barack Obama and his campaign, but the recent attacks on him and his wife have bordered on the intellectually dishonest. Michael Reynolds eviscerates the accusers in a perfect bit of satire and I have very little to add. Only, it’s these kind of blog/news cycle eruptions that make my occasional absences from blogging so enjoyable. I get so irritated when otherwise smart, perceptive people start harping on pseudo stories, pretending they’re illuminating the issues when they’re really just obfuscating the truth. So, instead of letting it get me down, I’m letting Reynolds do the heavy lifting of revealing the fallacies and idiocies of the current non stories.
