"The problem with hiring a regular columnist is that if you hire an idiot, you're stuck with an idiot," writes Kevin of today's laughable David Gelernter column which "is just embarrassing, the sort of thing the Onion might run as a parody of an op-ed. It starts with the dimwittedly contrarian premise that the Republican party is the true heir of FDR — Look Ma, I can be provocative! — and then descends into the spittle-flicked rant of a man who woke up constipated one morning and just started pouring his rage into his word processor. And then emailed it off." (Political Animal)
