That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Jimmy Carter is screwing up America? Damn him for building homes for poor people.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I would have made Goldberg justify some of the more ridiculous inclusions, like Jimmy Carter. Including Roy Moore does not match putting the founder of Habitat for Humanity at number six, you know?
That's asshattedness, that is.

I can't even.

That's an excellent point. I gather Righties hate Carter, but I'd still have had to call him on it.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
My Congresscritter is #38 on Goldberg's list. And frankly, I'm not crazy about McDermott, and if the Greens would put up a challenger, I'd vote for him or her in a heartbeat. But still, Goldberg said Seattle was "ground zero for overpriced coffee," and home of more "progressive loonies than anyplace else on the Left Coast."
I'm so proud! You have to be out some tough competition to be the looniest leftiest city on this coast!

This boggles. He has worked for peace and homes for the poor ever since he left office. Nobel Peace Prize for God's sake. Why would they hate him?

What is even happening?
I don't know how anyone could hate Carter. I can see them disagreeing with him, or resenting him (maybe, well not really, but I can allow for it), but he's so dear, so sincere, pretty wise, and so very good.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
He did challenge individuals by naming Barbra Streisand on the one hand and pointing out that there were three conservatives on the list-- and one had killed an abortion doctor! That right there pretty much said all you needed about Goldberg's book. If his problem is coarsening, Jimmy Carter, Barbra Streisand and a murderer do not belong on the same list.
I also thought his casual use of slurs was kind of offensive, as if he relished being able to say them on-air, as well as his whole fantasy example of a Fox News channel-- I mean, if your example is all about offensiveness that doesn't occur in real life, don't you destroy your whole point about how we've got no bounds on offensiveness?

Yeah, Seattlistas! Although I imagine Bay Areaistas (or is Bayistas) might argue for this one.
