"He is the perfect symbol of our culture of emboldened stupidity": the Art of the Vitriolic Book Review

If you enjoyed yesterday's gloriously enraged movie review, then take a look as an angry book reviewer brutally disassembles Thomas Friedman. Language warning.

(Dignified Rant, this one's for you!)

Thanks Minerva. But for the shots at Bush and the Iraq War, excellent Friedman abuse.

It's nice to see that Left and right can all agree to think little of Friedman.

It took me a moment to get the porn-stache comment. That was a good one.

And I wish I'd written "Color me unimpressed that he scrounged one more thing to sell out of the smoldering, discredited wreck that should be his career."

I rather liked "473 pages of this, folks. Is there no God?"

Though, admittedly, it's not God's fault, really. HE didn't write that drivel! ;-)
