    There she goes again...

    Joan, I do want you to know that I am not sexist. I am anti-pundit, and you have become as bad as "your buddy" Pat Buchanan. It is a Pundit's job to try and inflate everything into a story, to get puffed up with false umbrage and speak in exaggerated terms.

    I do not know you personally, only by your writing, and your writing stinks. Here is a tell:

    "I'd like to say I'm politically savvy enough to have predicted the continuing firestorm over Obama's remarks when it broke last week."

    You then go on to say that it blew up bigger than you thought it would, but it didn't. Your own website noted that no polls moved, and that this was a kerfufle of the chattering class.

    As many people have noted, Glenn Greenwald is the last draw for your website. If Mr. Greenwald was to analyze your writing of the last week, (and if you wouldn't fire him for doing so), he would find your writing is full of the deceit, conceit, and illogic that he constantly attacks from other pundits.

    Consider yourself warned.
