Since I’ve gone out of my way to make fun of the Washington Post on numerous occasions, I guess it’s only right for me to provide a little praise when praise is due. Well, here’s some praise: the Post’s recent editorial on Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s gross and unseemly posturing was spot on. Although it’s been a long time since Post editorials carried much of a wallop, thanks to Fred Hiatt, I suspect that this public spanking may make some slight imprint on Nino’s vanity. One can even hope—and this is probably nonsense, and will probably be exposed as nonsense at 10 o’clock this morning—that his fulmination was sparked in part by frustration over his brethren’s refusal to overturn the Affordable Care Act. Well, my fingers are crossed.
