Lee Smith has written a fun, smart and thorough takedown of Gingrich et al’s latest boogie monster: “sharia” law.
As you would expect, Gingrich doesn’t even know what he’s talking about. Which is especially a bummer if you consider all the real existential threats we Americans face. If you’re going to scare monger, at least do it right.
That this intellectually dishonest, self-serving hypocrite is considered an intellectual powerhouse in the Republican party should shed some light on just how craven and base are the impulses that prolong its popular influence in the U.S..
They really do appeal to the worst of us. Ronald Reagan must be turning over in his grave.
