Boy, Fred Hiatt is unbelievable. Discussing the foreign policy views of Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, he writes:

[A]fter you cut through some of their campaign rhetoric, here's what you find:

(1) The two candidates' programs are strikingly similar to each other.

(2) Both are strikingly similar to Bush administration policy.

Obama like Bush? Okaaaaay. I bet Obama loves that. I guess one could go to the trouble of debunking this nonsense but is it really necessary? Hiatt is quite the wanker isn't he?

    This is what passes for an intelligent or thorough discussion of the issue? These are the words of someone who's already made up their mind about what to believe:

    I guess one could go to the trouble of debunking this nonsense but is it really necessary?

    No mention of the 800 words that Hiatt devoted to comparing Obama and Romney. You used 51 to call Hiatt a wanker. No mention of Obama and Romney's plans for the intelligence community. No mention of their proposed increases in military personnel.

    As they say in school, "no credit unless you show your work."

    You gotta be kidding.

    See Gabe, this is when you really lose me.

    It is self evidnect that saying Obama's foreign policy is like Bush's is moronic.

    You write "show your work."

    I write if I need to show you my work on THAT then you are not paying attention.

    But you know it is nonsense. This is kneee jerk nonsense from you.
