Begalla needed to be answered badly. This column does that.
I was embarrassed for Paul showing his petticoat on this one. It read like an adolescent reaching for an essay that was due to the teacher, but he just couldn’t come up with one so this was she got instead.
Laughable the lack of intellectual reason and childish, churlish conclusions Begalla strung together, just to meet deadline I presume. What other excuse could there be?
The other excuse would be that Begala is a liberal, and ALL liberal arguments are childish and churlish. Now, your deadline theory could well be correct of course, but liberals being childish to me is just liberals being liberal.
He's playing to his audience (voters) who are dumber than a tree branch.
And you are right....that column did answer Begala’s immaturity pretty well.
