After Shock

I must say that I’m enjoying Bernard Schoenburg not letting Aaron Shock off the hook for his kooky “let’s give nukes to Taiwan” plan. I just wish the corporate media would focus on this sort of nuttiness more often. Granted, Shock’s bizarre foreign policy musings were particularly ridiculous, but in the world of wingnuttia this kind of cartoonish and simpleminded rhetoric is both common and rarely taken apart by the “serious” media. I‘m, hoping this trend will reverse itself in light of the disasters the Cheney administration has wrought. But I’m not holding my breath.
