Anyway, this is just another example of why I've always wanted Phil Gramm to
be president of the United States and why that can never, ever,
happen. Because it's a peeve of mine, my ears always seem to be catching people
talking about how much we need straight talkers in this country who won't cave
to their handlers, won't spin, won't poll-test their views. And yet, whenever
somebody speaks honestly, down comes the thunder. I think this is a bipartisan
phenomenon, by the way. Anyway, I think Gramm's comments were politically dumb but substantially
correct.

Actually, to be more precise we're a nation of puerile Gramscian fascifists. If he would have been really honest and said that then there wouldn't have been the reaction there was since nobody would have had the foggiest notion of what he said.
Because it was so much to the point of course.
