If you’re one of the four-or-so frequent readers of this here blog, chances are you also occasionally check out the New York Times op-ed page. You may even know the names: Thomas Friedman, Gail Collins, Nicholas Kristoff, &c. Well, I’ve decided to devote a daily feature to these folks, by daily pointing out one line that is either awesome, funny, insightful, intelligent, ridiculous, or utterly divorced from reality. I hope you enjoy.
Today\’s is from Thomas Friedman\’s utterly uninteresting column \”A Tea Party Without Nuts.\” He\’s wistful for centrism and smashing the two-party system. Or something. To be honest, it\’s not terribly clear what he wants. Anyways:
Break the oligopoly of our two-party system.
Hey, did you hear that the problem is that we needed another party? Nobody\’s ever mentioned that before; that\’s so interesting, please go on.
