Moral Dunces

I'm doing more blogging today than I've done in a week. I hope this makes somebody happy.

This I couldn't resist though.


CNN's Jeffrey Toobin reportedly "crossed the line" with Casey Greenfield, daughter of a CBS reporter. Columnists Rush & Molloy don't give details, but one can speculate from what they omit: Greenfield is pregnant.

Toobin, 13 years Greenfield's senior, is still married (with children) to Amy McIntosh.

Casey Greenfield is CBS political commentator, Jeff Greenfield's daughter.

Apparently, being a liberal means compassion in the abstract--for people you'll never meet, in fact people you pay security never to meet. Everybody close to you can expect betrayal. Casey Greenfield is a working attorney who went to the finest schools. Did she get inadequate sex education? Unclear on how to use a condom? Nobody told her that breaking up the marriage of a married man is scum-of-the-earth behavior?

Jeffrey Toobin is just, well pathetic. Its a mystery to me how such smart people (Toobin graduated twice Magna Cum Laude) can be so incredibly foolish. At least Mrs. Toobin won't have to stand besides her man at a press conference.

No political affiliation has a monopoly on virtue, but they do tend to pick similar vices.

bustoff:

"Toobin graduated twice Magna Cum Laude."

Just another example of the distinction between an education and intelligence.

Cum Laude. Twice. I'll bet he did.

I'm happy I'm happy!

I am hoping your basic decency and concern for your country and our fast decaying culture will get you over the doldrums you apparently were feeling.
Take a deep breath Mick and get back to the trenches.
