This guy says some of his liberal cohorts have gone bonkers. And then he makes the following unsubstantiated statements and assertions, as though any sane person would know these to be true:

"as whacked out as George W. Bush may be"

"I can buy the notion that Dubya might be the worst president ever."

"nuke-slinging Harry Truman, who also set up the CIA, helped spawn the Cold War and opened the doors to Senator Joe from Wisconsin" - nuke-slinging, spawned the cold war?

"LBJ, who murdered a couple of million Vietnamese" - it was all his fault? No communist culpability?

"drunken and pilled-out Dick Nixon playing atomic roulette during the 1973 Arab-Israeli War" - talk about whacko accusations!

"it's galling to watch a smirking C-minus daddy's boy like George W. Bush get away with so much"

"the damage Bush wreaks"

"Dreams of endless war"

"As a teenager, I was attracted to the left because of its commitment to rational and cool-headed analysis" - this one really tickles me.

Yeah, he wants them to know he's hip - just playing it "smarter."

>>lavishing tax giveaways and regulatory benefits on the corporate elite. <<

Letting people keep more of their own money is a "giveaway", and easing the heavy burden of government on business is a "benefit", and the evil Repubublicans are lavishing them both on the "corporate elite". Now there's some rational and cool-headed analysis.

Don't forget the "C- Daddy's boy" lie. George had a better gpa in college than Al Gore, although neither of them was a star.

This guy is as wacko as those he's complaining about.

As you so aptly point out with your quotes from the article, he's doing the same thing as those he's admonishing.

Yes, that's the biggest howler in the piece.
