Richard Cohen Rides To The Rescue
I wondered for a moment if Richard Cohen wrote his column today as a favor to Joe Klein, to distract one Villager's imbecility with another's. But then I remembered that Cohen is the worst columnist in America:
This business of what constitutes torture is a complicated matter. [Patrick Fitzgerald]managed to put Judith Miller of The New York Times in jail -- a wee bit of torture right there.
I defended Judy Miller's invocation of the reporters' privilege at the time. But I never confused her detainment for civil contempt as torture. But for imbeciles like Cohen, the issue of torture is "complicated." It is not enough to say that Cohen is immoral, which of course he is. It must be said he is an idiot. There is no better example of the white man's privilege than Richard Cohen, who should not have a job writing for anybody.
Speaking for me only
