John Podhoretz takes umbridge. Something about the Marquis of Queensbury rules and why conservative gentlemen insist on bringing a knife to a gun fight. They don’t win the fight but they are invited to simply the best parties.

Not sure how “faux” Podhoretz’s outrage is. What’s fascinating is the spectacle of an only-slightly-above-average mind trying to figure out how another man, whom he avers is “brilliant and cultivated,” could dare to raise candid questions regarding Obama’s ethnic background — when in fact only a brilliant and cultivated man would, and could.
