Colbert with the “conventional reaction” to Richard Cohen
The Cohen archives are so rich in bloggy goodness that it’s hard not to go back and feature them at a time like this.
Ok, here’s just one from July 29, 2008:
The next president will have to be something of a political Superman, a man of steel who can tell the American people that they will have to pay more for less — higher taxes, lower benefits of all kinds — and deal in an ugly way when nuclear weapons seize the imagination of madmen.
This is from the fellow the Washington Post lists as a liberal columnist.
No wonder everyone hates liberals.
By the way, Jonathan Schwarz wrote the definitive take on Cohen and his ilk a long time ago. H/t to Atrios.
