Best thing I’ve read today

January 11, 2008 By admin

“A nation in which the poor are defined by an income level that in most countries would make them prosperous is a nation that has all but forgotten the true meaning of poverty.

“A nation in which obesity is largely a problem of the poor (and anorexia of the upper-middle class) does not understand the word ‘hunger.’

“A nation in which the most celebrated recent cases of racism, at Duke University or in Jena, La., are wholly or mostly contrived is not a racist nation.

“A nation in which our ‘division’ is defined by the vitriol of Ann Coulter or James Carville is not a truly divided one — at least while Mr. Carville is married to Republican operative Mary Matalin and Ms. Coulter is romantically linked with New York City Democrat Andrew Stein…”

Read the whole thing. A keeper.
