Rift From the Headlines

This rift is defined hereby as the gulf between people with extant intelligence and subtle understanding of ideas, and the Sarah Palin-grade paranoids who don't quite understand what the hell they're raging about, but nevertheless do so with much clenched passion, fake tears, guns and a whole garage full of stockpiled bullets.
Mark Morford wonders what it would take to bridge the divide.

My favorite sentence, selected for it's excellent use of both correct language and humorous patois, is this one:

"Obama is doing the opposite: the paranoids are so scared by the guy's untouchable force field of smarts and self-assurance, they're coagulating into little clusters, foamy little pools of resistance and anti-gummint hate."

Thanks for the link.
