It’s official. In his latest column, Richard Cohen, who made his bones at the Wash Post by helping take down Spiro Agnew, treats the fad for tattoos among the young as a sign of the general fuckedupedness of modern America, addresses young women as “sweeties” and makes smart remarks about their “tummies,” bemoans the fact that the average American family owes more than they make (that is, they have mortgages), complains about the failure of society to adequately fund Social Security (gee, I wonder who’s planning to retire), and generally does everything except insist that Miley Cyrus can’t hold a candle to Annette Funicello. You know, Dick, I’m almost as old as you are. You’re giving me a lot to look forward to.
