I join the Cadre of Eye Rollers with Keyboards in ceaselessly mocking Bill Kristol, whose utterly bizarre disconnect from the real world always has me looking forward to his next editorial.
Shorter Bill Kristol:
Using big words make me sound smarter, especially if I follow by adding that I actually looked it up. It's a good thing, too, because now that the world is going 13 directions at once, it'll be really crucial to know what I know, or what I might change my mind about. Because change is bad. Er, good. Yeah. One of those.
I know 8th graders who write more cohesively than this. Which unfortunately means I know 8th graders who write better than some people earning journalism degrees.
And seriously, Bill. Use those big words too much and you might start sounding like one of those Starbucks-sipping university professor philanthropist elitists who disagree with your doctrine that George Bush and John McCain were touched by the hand of God and absolutely destined to run the most awesomest country on earth. Or do you think maybe the Iraq war wasn't the best idea ever now?
Or maybe living amongst the rest of the NYT editorial board is starting to chip away at that shiny cocoon of Stupid. But I'm not holding my breath.
