you're right about paxton. it has it's flaws, but still a good overall analysis. it's good that the press points out the pre- and post-innauguration obama disconnects. i only wish it weren't only (or virtually so) the so-called lefties they bothered to critique. i was watching the coverage of the townhall "meetings" the other day and i couldn't help thinking of the john kerry tasering incident in florida. if that poor fellow had behaved even remotely like these screamers have been allowed to carry on, he'd have been gunned down on the spot. with prejudice. if, when gwb was potus, someone had attempted to approach within three miles of a presidential townhall meeting with a gun strapped to his leg, they would have called in an airstrike on him. these are also very serious disconnects. in fact, for very serious and important that "the obama disconnect" is, these others are even more so. the message is very clear. unmistakeable. unspoken. understood by all. if you want to speak about public affairs/public policy from a place of compassion, humanity, reason, then get ready for the takedown. but if you're all about hate, well, they'll hold the door open for you and beg you to let them get you a refreshment. cryptofascism. . .aint it grand?
