“[C]ranky, close-minded, scattershot attack piece”? Why, how unbelievably witty and intelligent sounding! Your post kind of reminds me of how so many radicals of the 60-70’s generation often sound like they’ve said something intelligent when they’ve said nothing at all!
James — Well, it a is “cranky, close-minded, scattershot attack piece,” is it not? Though now I’m thinking that “barstool rant” better sums it up. I notice that you make no effort to argue otherwise–you just add your own cranky, close-minded, scattershot invective.
I’m not crazy about the sixties in many ways myself. But being old-fashioned, I prefer reasoned argument, good writing and, if possible, wit, when making a point or two.
Cheers.
