Catching up with Doufus Douthat
Ross Douthat, chief conservative doufus columnist for the New York Times, had George Wallace as governor of Georgia in his column today.
It wouldn't make much sense for the governor of Georgia to stand in the schoolhouse door of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, but then maybe old Ross has been reading different history books than I read.
This is what happens when newspapers fire their entire staffs of copy editors. Doufuses like Douthat are given free reign to gambol about their mental playpens unsupervised.
Not a good look, NYT.
I unsubbed from the NYT because of their email obsession compounded by hiring of Bret Stephens, so I get black-flagged PDQ near the beginning of each month. P.S. Speaking of copy editors, because I am one I've got to note that it's free *rein*, not reign. Although with these monarchist wannabes in charge "reign" might be more appropriate. ;-)
Wow.
