Times like this I'm reminded of years ago when "opinion journalists" loved to distinguished themselves from "bloogers" and the primary distinction, aside from some made up stuff, was that bloogers actually care if they have any impact on the world, while serious opinion journalism just exists in the realm of ideas. Or something.
Don't get upset by all the racism. Only the steely-eyed Vulcan logic of centrist punditry can tell us how to steer a proper course, though who really cares actually?
