I think I'll make my way back to Andrew Sullivan's blog now where the Obama praise flows freely. Thank you for the interlude.

Yes, please do! Because reading opposing opinions is unpleasant and unflattering to the ego, let's be honest. Go wrap yourself in a cocoon of people who agree with you, and don't ever worry about anything else, ever.

I mean, you say you're concerned with "the rationality and thoughtfulness of the population at large" and yet, you can make statements like the above with no sense of irony whatsoever. Wow.
